Monday Mixtape | 63 Songs That Keep It Real (Side 1)

Now that AI is being used to write lyrics in the style of artists like Nick Cave, I presume it’s only a matter of time until somebody combines that with music-generating programs, vocal samples and video apps to create entire songs, albums and YouTube clips that look and sound exactly like your favourite musicians. Then I can get it to write roundup intros in the style of famous authors and remove all that annoying humanity from the whole equation once and for all. Until that glorious day, however, you’re stuck with me — and lucky enough to get 63 new singles, videos, cover tunes, remixes, golden oldies and live clips that are nothing short of the real deal. Your Tinnitist-approved tracks are tagged with 💯. Let’s run the numbers:
