There was a time were the only way we could find new music or let alone listen to music was from cassettes we made ourselves that we call ‘mixtapes’. That’s why this is here, to help bring knowledge to songs that you may have forgotten about, never knew about or songs that you still listen to now after the years. Throughout these playlists there will be old and newer songs, it’s all a surprise. So get to listening below and ENJOY!
