VARIOUS ARTISTS "Burn It Down" MIX TAPE

This is a re-issue of the other "BURN IT DOWN" mixtape that I made 15 copies of to sell at the "NO THANKS: Art As A Form of Protest" art show that happened in November, 2023 at The Trunk Space. All the money from this mixtape goes to unshelteredphx.

This mixtape is made up of protest music by mostly femmes + queers and more than half of the music features black and indigenous people. When I started working on this mix I quickly realized how important this particular niche/genre was and decided to reach out to some friends, musicians, DJ's and artists who's political and musical taste I admire for help. You can read the full description and list of people who contributed here.

SPOTIFY PLAYLISTS

I decided to make a whole page on the Related Records website about all the different playlists I have made and continue to make. You can check it out here.

I also wanna make it clear that Related Records does not endorse or support Spotify. They are an awful company that makes billions of dollars on the backs of hardworking musicians, producers, fans, labels... basically anyone who contributes or works within the music industry - Spotify is making money off you whether you want them to or not. BUT I also recognize that they are affordable and easy to use, which is why so many music fans use it and why I have created these playlists for you to enjoy. If you are a Spotify user, no shame or hard feelings meant for you. But fuck Daniel Ek and Martin Lorentzon forever.
