Huge thank you to my PDX friend Marcus Fischer for putting together this guest mix. I have known him for over a decade, and before he went ambient big w/ 12k he was the one putting together all the ambient show fliers and playing most of them (all for free of course). He is the guy that you go on tour with and he plays different sets every show while you play the same exact thing every stop. He is the best!

We hoped to go silent the entire day, but weirdly enough it's illegal to not broadcast on FM and we could lose our license (big deal). I decided to play music the first 30min by black artists I admire, play speeches the next 30min by black voices, then I handed it off to Ambush of the black run The Numberz radio station (96.7 PDX) for the last hour. This is the first section, listen to the podcast on www.xray.fm for the full show.

from HC: Boy, do I have a special treat for you! Just as I thought we were finished, and the selections of best of the year came rushing in, I realized that we have more to celebrate at the turn of the decade. So, the ever trustworthy Mike Jedlicka of Optic Echo Presents whipped out his overflowing crates of vinyl and began digging for his favourites to make you another mix! I have to say, there are a lot of surprises on here, and the choices are not that obvious, which makes this unique selection that much more exciting! It’s a trip and a half and is a perfect way to bid farewell to the 10’s of the 21st century. So, turn on, tune in, and of course, drop out…
For Headphone Commute:
Good morning and welcome to 2020. We kick off another century with our annual tradition of celebrating the music of the yesteryear, by presenting to you our favourites and recommendations. There will be enough here to fill your shelves and empty your wallets, and all that is coming up in just a couple of days, but we open up our tribute with another vinyl-only mix by Mike Jedlicka of Optic Echo Presents, to tease your ears with his selections of this still-spinning format. If you enjoy this mix, make sure to check out others from the past, which go back to 2011, and yes, are still available for your listening pleasure!
For a full track listing and a download of a higher bitrate MP3, please stop by headphonecommute.com and subscribe to our podcast! Don't forget to check us out on Facebook and follow us for more music recommendations!
And as always, please enjoy responsibly and support the featured artists!

I made an ambient mix for my wedding reception dinner this weekend. I dialed back the noise and weirdness on this one ... cause of family ;)
I'm not sure how many mixes I'll be able to do for the next month or two, since I will be in Europe for the first couple weeks in early August for our honeymoon. Thank you for your patience!
