Sheena Beaston - P3 Pop Minimix

P3 Pop is radder than rad. Love their tunes and especially their guest mini mixes, and I have even more reason to toss out viurtual high fives 'cross the pond to Sweden because, as mentioned last week, my very first minimix has just gone live on the station. Airing in real-time, I'm posting and hosting the file here as well for all y'all who missed the live feed.

 

 

Being that I couldn't reveal the actual file or track listing until after the mix aired, I've now got free reign to give it all away mm hmm! You can stream or download the minimix after the track list.

 

All feedback is warmly received and yes, you're free to giggle at how bootleg it is. Thanks to Sara and P3 Pop for letting me in on th fun!

Sheena Beaston - P3 Pop Minimix

  

Sheena Beaston Mix to be Featured on P3 Pop with Sara Martinsson (June 28, 2010)

Knowing my love of all things Swedish, pop and radio-centric, getting an email from Sara Martinsson, host of the fantastic P3 Pop show on Sweden National Radio, was not only a shock (in the best way possible) but quite the beastly honor as well. With Martinsson coming stateside this month, she's featuring a ton of New York City music entities. She's already done it this past Monday, and on June 28, we literally get to jump into the mix. 

 

  

Think of this as a programming note. A "hey hey you better tune in!" post, if you will, because Sara will be debuting my 10-minute minimix...fixed and fiddled with by my own hands! 

 

While I can't give you the final file just yet being that it won't air until Monday June 28 during the 21:00-23:00 time slot (3 - 5pm EST), I thought it might be fun to tease you with some background on why I chose the songs I did, along with an intensely abbreviated track list of the songs I used.

 

Feel free to guess which songs you might be hearing. (save this link for next week's listening!)

  

I have musical ADD. That being, I cant keep listening to one song for too long...and fittingly enough, this stunted attention span of mine worked out pretty well when creating a true "New York City" minimix. The cast of characters I come across in every day life is mirrored in the below list of songs. We start in the 'hood I inhabit with a fun little fix/re-rub of the first track that shouts out "this is a story a [Astoria]", and we travel through London, Sweden, Sydney, Italy, South Africa, Berlin via Canada, and a few other international destinations before returning home. Beastly, indeed.
