My retro-inspired kpop mixtape circa late 2021

a printer scan of a burned cd-rw case with the tracklist written in deep violet purple marker on a lined white paper inside the case

a printer scan of a burned cd-rw with '내 레트로 밐스테이프' written in small purple writing at the top of the disc.

My absolutely totally original super creative name: "내 레트로 밐스테이프을" (lit. "my retro mixtape" in korean)

no streaming link, sorry :( I don't have the files I used to make this anymore.

Basically just kpop songs I thought had a retro feel. Some because of their 80s-90s synth usage, others because of 60s-ish pop tropes. It was my first ever mixtape so it's all over the place haha. I'm definitely embarrassed of it, but wanted to share it anyway.

Twisted*Beauty (circa 2003)

Found this while cleaning! It is both absolutely fantastic and a mess, made late-2003 or so?? at a the house of a friend of the family where I kinda lived sometimes. Just, a very interesting mix of stuff and the sequence of Tr. 13-16 is just wow. Alas, some of the OG game tracks are pretty muddy, and there's some clipping between tracks that happened during the burn. But overall, 12/10, would keep on repeat for a week. No clue if any of the video game remix stuff can even be dug up these days...

irony

a burned CD in a translucent pink slim jewel case with a hot pink translucent mini-disc on top, the mini-disc has a cut label on the label section that has 'irony' written on it vertically, while the CD case has no cover and simply shows the disc inside that has 'irony' written on it

THE MINIDISC REVOLUTION IS UPON US

i have been obsessed with minidiscs for the past month. they're a dead format by sony that made optical discs tiny and put them in colorful floppy disk-like cartridges and the players fit in the palm of your hand and they're ADORABLE and FUTURISTIC and the BEST. you can learn more about them at the community-run minidisc wiki because i can't distill its history in just one post but it's very rich and interesting!

anyway my note for this mix over at illcocytus was "the centerpiece of this mix was lips by snsd and the percussion in it and then it morphed into this" so i hope that explains this mix well enough
