Schmutzie's January 2021 Mixtape

January 2021’s mixtape is about 1 hour and 21 minutes long and has 21 alternative, jazz, gospel, rock, indie rock, punk, hard rock, electronic, and hip-hop/rap songs across 6 decades. 43% of the music is from 2020. This playlist is available on both Spotify and Apple Music, and if you scroll to the bottom, you’ll find embedded widgets you can play right here.

My playlists have generally been much longer over 2020, closing in on or over three hours, but December seems to have swallowed up a lot of things, including my time to listen to more music. Not to worry, though, all three of you, because I’m going to put together my favourites of 2020 in an extra playlist to help carry me/us through January.
