The second volume of the Strangers In Stereo‘s Strange Sounds series comes courtesy of the excellent Hard Mix. Hailing from “the birth place of chillwave“, Greenville, SC, Noah aka Hard Mix makes glistening lo-fi electronica with roots in the old Motown sound. His estranged love for old school soul is more than present in his SUMMERFUN mix for Strange Sounds. It goes without saying that this mix should be on your iPod this summer. I’ve also included Hard Mix’ original track, “Memories” for download (it’s also in the mix).
