On any given Friday, Cool Your Jets Creative releases a new Fresh Friday. a hot and tasty vinyl mixtape with a custom cover. Tracks range from jazz to soul to hip-hop and beyond, with nearly every song ripped from original pressing vinyl, where each pop from the static patina tells a story of that record’s journey.
Inside + Out
In anticipation of Pride month, this Fresh Friday celebrates everyone who has ever felt unsafe to share their true selves. Pride cannot be contained or quarantined. It can be amplified by the outside world, but lives within you. It is an enduring expression of honesty, authenticity, and love.
You Must Believe in Spring
This week’s Fresh Friday welcomes the relief of spring, thawed by the sincere radiance of The Supremes, Prince, EPMD, Roy Ayers, The Swingle Singers, Bill Evans, Deniece Williams, Eddie Kendricks, and De La Soul.
The Tree Planters
This week’s Fresh Friday welcomes guest deejay, Miles (who curated the album selection, track-list, title, and cover), and sows the seeds of pre-spring funk, nourished by Jimi Hendrix, Lee Morgan, Prince, Curtis Mayfield, Stevie Wonder, Otis Redding, and James Brown!
Love Survives
This week’s Fresh Friday pushes the borderline, replenished by the fulfilling funk of Aram Khachaturian, Dizzy Gillespie & Lalo Schifrin, Madonna, Ramsey Lewis, Michael Jackson, George Benson, and Blossom Dearie!
The Way It Began
Brothers and sisters, this week’s Fresh Friday (on a Tuesday) doesn’t know what the world is coming to, braved by the credible funk of Eddie Kendricks, Maya Angelou, Fela Kuti, Prince, Ann Peebles, Jimmy Smith & Wes Montgomery, Lee Hazlewood & Nancy Sinatra, & Tina Turner.
