For this week's Mittwoch Mixes, here are three mixes of Summer Vibes. The first mix, An Unfamiliar Line, is a reworking of a mix CD I made back in the 2010's, when CDs were still a thing. With the world continuing to be a flaming dumpster full of stinking trash giving off acrid smoke, going back and working on these three mixes was a pleasant distraction.
All three mixes feel very 'summery' to me, which probably will reveal my idiosyncratic sense of the season.
