(This is a translated repost of Sonntagsmusik: Sebastian Arnold - Mixtape 2016 on Progolog.de, who contacted me in 2019 after I pointed out on Twitter that I had started producing yearly mixtapes a decade ago.)
2016 marks the last time in this series that travel is the central theme. Once again, the road movie evokes rugged cliffs, the dark cosmos full of wandering lights, and a jungle filled with jazz. Once again, we can look back wistfully on the journey we’ve taken, for example, with the help of “Three Days” and “Spiegel im Spiegel.” And, of course, a whole new perspective will follow… next month!
