6x6 - March 2025

Continuing my 6x6 series, publishing on the 6th of the month for the first time, here are six things I want to recommend for March 2025. Just as with the first installment in Feb 2025, these are things I think might be overlooked or under-appreciated or just things that I really enjoy that I want to share with others as I work to share more positive things.

This month, they're presented arbitrarily in alphabetical order...

Alien Pop Monday 00.5 - I put a cryptic message on the door

Another Alien Pop Monday...

This mix builds off the fifth track from Rampen (apm: alien pop music), "Before I Go." This mix came together surprisingly quickly. With this fifth mix, we're already a third of the way through both the Rampen album and the project.

# Artist Track
1 Einstürzende Neubauten Before I Go
2 Akron/Family Before And Again
3 Chris Connelly The Son of Empty Sequel
4 Volcano The Bear before we came to this religion
5 Die Warzau Go Going Gone
6 Foetus Industrial Go-Slow
7 Body/Head Where Did You Go?
8 SPIRULINA The Message
9 Mark Lanegan & Duke Garwood L.A. Blue
10 Wire I Feel Mysterious Today
11 Alexander Hacke Sugarpie
12 Thor & Friends Mystery Train
13 Einstürzende Neubauten Perpetuum Mobile

Slightly off the topic of the mix, but several of the songs are from albums that were in constant rotation my final year of college. I got Perpetuum Mobile the spring of my Junior year, Die Warzau's Convenience came out the fall of my Senior year and Alexander Hacke's Sanctuary was the soundtrack for my last few weeks of college, constantly in my old discman as I finished my final papers and exams.
