Friend told me my mixtapes had 'no flow' and I finally got it
Honestly, I used to just slap random songs onto a 90-minute TDK tape with no thought. Last month my buddy Dan straight up said, 'Man, your transitions are jarring, you go from death metal to folk with zero warning.' He told me to think of it like building a set, not a playlist. I started grouping by BPM and key, even used a free app to check before dubbing. Now I spend like 3 hours planning a 60-minute mix, and the difference is wild. Has anyone else gotten hard feedback that actually improved their tape game?
