rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 12/07/2026so this mixtape thing that I'm writing is actually going quite well i think? I read the thing that I wrote ages ago (the article that got me invited to do this thing in the first place) and it's... weird, but I like it? 140

rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 07/06/2026okay so I accidentally missed off from this weird lil #imaginarymixtapes project the number 1 track? Every Day is Exactly The Same (Nine Inch Nails). I dunno how I feel about that; it was indicative of my month. And like, at the time, I think I enjoyed it, but I also... listened to NIN a lot. 110
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 06/06/2026#imaginarymixtapes May track 8 is 'Kill V. Maim' (Grimes). I watched the video for this LOTS and you'd be hard pressed to convince me that Lestat wouldn't think it was pretty awesome lol. On a not-so-different note, r we intrigued about The Vampire Lestat? Put yr feelings below; mine are ¯\_(ツ)_/¯youtube.comGrimes - Kill V. MaimFrom the new album ‘Art Angels’ out now and available for download here:… 010
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Oooh yes, May #imaginarymixtapes number 7 is Watchtower (Earth Tongue). Two piece band! Super acidy! A lil bit doom influenced! Like a lot of this music, it sorta makes you feel like yr in the middle of a D&D campaign with a slightly rabid DM; I know that sounds like I don't like it but i flippin do 000
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 06/06/2026#imaginarymixtapes track 6 is KILL DEM by Jamie xx; I know literally nothing about this track apart from the fact that the video is hilarious and brilliant.

rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 06/06/2026#imaginarymixtapes tune number five is AfroLeft (Leftfield). Uh, bit of a weird techno interlude here; it's a bit of a nostalgia trap for me, this one. Very mid-90's; progressive house could only be from this period in history, i reckon. Anyway we're half way through the list for May 000
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Today's addition to the #imaginarymixtapes is War Over Land by JPEGMAFIA. Another song with a sigh in it; but to be honest, it was the video that caught my attention on this one. 100
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Next on the #imaginarymixtapes for last month is A Small Victory (Faith No More). This was my hype tune for the month, i gotta say. Which is... sorta weird if you read the lyrics but like, just that INTRO omg. 010
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Dead Kennedy's Too Drunk to F**k is next on the #imaginarymixtapes, which is just me thinking about my top ten most listened to songs last month. This is obvious it's a rad song; sort of gross also, but that's part of what makes it great. Ha! This was an easy one. 010
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Not to gloat or anything but this is my office for a few hours heeheeheeeeee 010
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 03/06/2026Gonna do a thing where I drop my last months top ten n write a lil about each track. Gonna call it #imaginarymixtapes coz its interesting to me to consider like... how are these songs related? What does it mean that I like them? Also, doing this in public is very amusing to me. 120
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 03/06/2026The thing is, right, the thing is that I love a list. And if Apple Music is going to give me a list every month of the weird combo of music that I listened to in the last month I'm gonna find a way to write about it. 010

rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 30/05/2026We spend a lot of energy making ourselves the same as each other. I get it. It's scary!

So if you need someone to encourage you to be the weird you wanna see in the world, consider me that person 🥰 010
rendeacon.bsky.social @rendeacon.bsky.social · 29/05/2026This piece is super-interesting. Heavy metal aesthetics are folklore- and horror-adjacent, so I'm interested to see if this "Institutional Gothic" follows there (specially in music vids) Coz there is something sorta austere + desolate + beautiful about it, right? 030
