spotify playlists

I 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. 

Here is a Related Records Spotify playlist that gets updated whenever something new from the label comes out.
​This page will be updated as I add new playlists to the streaming machine.

SONGS I LOVE TO EAT

A fun little playlist of songs about food, created for an event I hosted back in July, 2024. Whenever I come across a new great song about food, I just add it to this one. I am always open to suggestions too.

NOT FOR CISSIES

This mixtape was made with help from Amber of Fatty Cakes & The Puff Pastries. All the artists on the mix fall under one or more of the letters in LGBTQIA...etc. All the music is tough as fuck! Cissies probably couldn't handle it.

YOU DON'T NEED A BAND TO BE IN A BAND

This is a mixtape I made to help inspire weirdo's to just make music by themselves, with whatever objects or resources they have. Spotify doesn't have a lot of the tracks that were originally on this mix, so this playlist is actually very different from the original tape.​ But still very fun and inspiring.

ANOTHER (MOSTLY) UNDERGROUND SKA MIXTAPE

Something that has always bugged me about the ska music scene is that when people talk about it, it makes it seem so small. With a focus on just a few bands that “made it” every decade. When there has always been a fun/wild underground scene.

SKA MIX FOR Q

I made this mixtape for my friend Quintron after a conversation with him about ska music. He said he didn't know much beyond Jackie Mitto, Madness and The English Beat. So here is a mix of (mostly underground + very organ heavy) ska mix that I hope you enjoy.

MY EARLIEST MEMORY: A QUEER "HOLIDAY" MIXTAPE

HI MY NAME IS RYAN DIGITAL EUROPEAN TOUR MIX CD

In May, 2020 I had plans to go on a little solo tour. By March, 2020 I realized I had to cancel it because of COVID-19.

THE LLL TOUR PRESENTS: DJ RYANS FAVORITE SONGS

Mix CD of music I played from my phone via the bandcamp app while on tour with Yairms + Hi My Name Is Ryan + The Emotron + ALHHLA. One of my favorite things about being on tour is listening to music with friends and the long, insightful discussions about it on the drives between cities.

THE REAL CREAM OF THE CROP: ESSENTIAL DEAD MILKMEN FOR DAIRY LOVERS

In 2018 a friend of mine said he had never listened to the Dead Milkmen, so I made him this mix CD. I think its a great intro to the band & their expansive career. Playlist includes songs from post 2018 releases too. But its missing “the puking song” from the smoking banana peels single. Spotify sux

RELATED RECORDS 2015-2016 MIX CDS

Between September 2015-September 2016 I released a mix CD each month that I would include with orders featuring music from Related Records artists and stuff I was selling on discogs. It was bizarre and most people stopped listening to CD's by then. But it is cool to look back & reflect on this time. ​Listen on Shuffle
