In my (often delusional) world, there is no such thing as just getting one chance at doing something the first time. Where others might see their first blog post as being a one-time only deal, I see it as an opportunity for a multi-part, maybe slightly long-winded, introduction (a lot like this exposition really).
Too many songs didn't make into the first mix, and also seemed to flowed naturally into a loose narrative, which also gave Alex more context for the first illustration. So this is how it became a 2-parter and I love the through line of the mixtape going from thought to reality that you see in the image. Illustration by Alex Riegert-Waters, music and words by Leigh Tran.
