Sweet 16
As of the beginning of this month, Fluxblog has existed for 16 years. I am going to celebrate this occasion by revisiting a lot of old favorites from over the years that have slipped into obscurity. In some cases I’ll be writing about songs featured here many years ago with a new perspective, and in others, I’ll be writing about songs that I love that I never got around to covering on the site. It’s remarkable how much great music from the past decade is almost completely forgotten today, or doesn’t even exist on streaming platforms. I want to do what I can to put these artists and songs back into the world. History gets erased when no one bothers to write about it.

Matthew H. says:Congrats on the site’s birthday! Looking forward to you writing about the old stuff.
Also, completely agree with what you said on the previous post about Twitter. It is so relentlessly negative and obnoxious.

STINKY says:Thanks for everything you do. You’ve put me onto a lot of music over the years. My gf and I live in Florida we and hightailed it to South Carolina last September to get away from Hurricane Irma, and we spent most of of the drive listening to your survey mixes.

Bryce says:Congrats on 16 years! I still listen to music you’ve recommended over the years that has fallen into total obscurity – in some cases, the only online record of its existence is what you’ve written about it.
