ROCK RADAR, Vol. 3: Movements and Melodies

Prepare your socks for being rocked off.

Finally getting around to re-posting this third Rock Radar mixtape, which I originally created in 2023. Still, welcome back to the best new music you’ve (mostly) never heard! This collection represents music that resonated strongly with me during my last few months in Croatia. 24 gems from mainstream stalwarts like Foo Fighters and The Hives, lesser known indie groups like Rockford and Sick Joy, and rising songwriters like Bartees Strange.

Rock Radar Vol. 3 is, as always, my attempt to capture those in a time capsule of sorts, and sequence them in a way that takes you on an emotional journey.

Below you’ll find everything you need to enjoy the newest mixtape as loudly and enthusiastically as possible:

🎧 Rock Radar Vol. 3: Spotify Playlists

If you want to dive right in, just press play on these Spotify playlists, but be warned you’ll only hear the full tracks if you have Spotify Premium. Because these are meant to be enjoyed with the flow and timing of classic mixtapes, I’ve separated the playlists into Side A and Side B.

✅ Direct Downloads

I’ve created digital 256k mp3 files for each side of this mixtape. Each one features some light manual crossfading, and a custom EQ ideal for recording to a 90 minute tape.
