Happy one-year-anniversary to my Messy Mix project! And since I started it in late 2022 with a big dance party I thought it might be natural to also end this first round of mixtapes with another one. Because honestly: What else is there left to do in these troubled times then to dance the pain away, right?
Like with last year’s End-of-the-year-set I still find it challenging to gather overall hits for this one because they simply don’t exist anymore in our fragmented media landscape. But these are MY personal favourite go-to-tunes of 2023 – from the life-embracing pop of Romy and Caroline Polacheck to the disco vibes of Jessie Ware. From the comebacks of old heroes like Everything But The Girl and Bloc Party to banging rave tunes by Overmono and Mall Grab. 90 minutes of genre-hopping euphoria awaits you in the 11th edition of the Messy Mix.
Thanks for listening to it and the other Messy Mixes throughout 2023. Thanks to all the artists that contributed so far … it means the world to me.
The Messy Mix will return in 2024. Until then: Take care of each other!
