Tape Tuesday: Songs for an Actress 3
If we can just recap for a second, the whole Songs for an Actress trilogy is named after a Hoodie Allen track of pretty much the same name. The first of the trilogy was the very first mixtape I ever made on Sunset in the Rearview. It contains some of my favorite songs of last year and is still one of my favorite mixes. The second was the first mini-mix I ever made for my Saturday at Sunset daily special. It contains more hip-hop/rap than any of my other mixes, including the always hilarious “Rashida Jones” by Prometheus Brown and Bambu and the incredibly catchy “A Lil More” by Otayo Dubb.
This, the third and final installment in the series, is an audacious attempt at a real mix. Like, you know, the one’s that actual DJ’s play. Wait, okay. That’s not completely true. What I like about this mix is actually how eclectic it is. One second you can be snorting crack cocaine to a remix of an Avicii track and the next you can be crying yourself to sleep! The whole mix is an audio representation of your estranged uncle. But unlike your estranged uncle, it’s just crazy enough to work.
And yeah, I wrote these songs for an actress.
