trying to write a lil blurb about josh is an unjust task. this person is so many things for so many people in so many ways... truly a renaissance girl, here's someone whose generosity can only be rivalled by their incredible, unmatched sensibility for music old and new - and his patience to track down artists and convince them to release or re-issue their stuff on his label. diggers love to brag, but they impress little when standing next to giant like this: a lover who does it for the sharing, for the stories, to keep the myriad legacies alive and ready to inspire futures. i don't know how on earth and the cosmos i was lucky enough to be introduced to this bb, but i thank the great magicianess every day for this friendship. whenever we get to spend time together everything feels right. like the great tapestry makes more sense and comes full circle. whether we laugh or we cry or (likely) eat, it just reminds me that ugh, yes, despite all the pain and the dire prices to pay, it's worth it to live because of shared moments like this.

of course josh, in true self-depricating genius fashion, said this when delivering this beautiful mix: 'here is my mix. it's only songs from 2020 lol i am a dork'. well, it had to be released today cause we all deserve to have this on our players to help us elevate into a (hopefully shinier) 2021 while being thankful for the silver linings 2020 had - music does save. especially music that comes from a heart like josh's.
