Annas Mix 26:
(42 min, mellow and pretty)
From when I was 18/19. Pretty solid mix. Lots of 10/10 songs that still mean a lot to me. Once Around the Block, Green Grass and Do you Believe are some of the most perfect songs ever made imo.
If you want to see one of the most heartfelt beautiful performances ever watch this version of Do You Believe:

Annas Mix 27
(40 min, a bit strange and unhinged, in a good way)
I really had a vision here. I still really like it but would change a few songs that don’t quite fit right.
Also first Deca appearance, who I would end up listening to death in the next 5-10 years. The boyfriend of my best friend back then had a really nice taste in music, especially rap and would often play Deca at her place. I am pretty sure he also introduced me to Kendrick.

Annas Mix 29:
(28 min, a bit depressing but not too bad)
I have so many important memories tied to the songs on this mix. I remember listening to Damaged Goods in a flixbus to Amsterdam, while heartbroken over an unrequited crush, I remember listening to In My Mind in my moms garden on a warm night with a close friend of mine (who I’m still friends with <3) after talking about how we always end up unhappily in love with people, I remember showing this to guy I really liked and him telling me later that he thought it was a good mix and that he listened to it again.
In Love is btw is still the best song to describe how it feels to me to have a crush.

Annas Mix 30
:
(33 min, somewhat depressing and heartbroken)
Perfect mix. 10/10. It was the second to last mix I made fuelled by my heartbreak over a friend I was unhappily in love with from 18 to 20. That fucked me up so bad and ended up with me being a complete wreck. These days I would never do that to myself. Staying friends with someone who rejected you and who you’re still desperately and madly in love with is just torture. Especially if they toy with your emotions and always dangle the possibility in front of you that it still might happen.
Unrelated but still noteworthy: Not Ready Yet is one of the best songs ever and should be the official anthem of all anxious people.

Annas Mix 21:
(28 min, mostly upbeat)
I don’t really like this one. It was originally longer and I cut 3 songs because it was all over the place but it still feels a bit incohesive. I think it’s from the time I was around 17/18 and had to move back to my mother’s place because of a catastrophic failed shared flat situation with my best friend back then. Not a good time.

(32 min, mostly upbeat)
From when I was 18. It’s getting hard to remember from when each mix is but I know that the Avalanches album Wildflower was freshly out so it must’ve been then. I remember that I had just met who would become my best friend for many years through an event my first boyfriend brought me to and Wildflower was the first of a lot really great music she recommended to me. I have never met anyone before or since with a music taste as good or as compatible with mine as hers. Also I had just started going to Metalab because I remember discovering that last song at the old lounge there.

A lot of cute stuff but also a few songs I now cringe at a bit. I am ashamed to admit I, as a teen, have seen the Lumineers live, not once but twice!! But my soon to be best friend back then showed Flight of the Conchords to me for the first time and I was immediately a die hard fan. Such a great show and great music. Carol Brown is such a sweet beautiful song. Probably my favorite.

One of my favorite mixes I ever made. I had broken up with my boyfriend a couple of months earlier but was already heartbroken over another unrequited crush. I had just discovered Bojack Horseman and through that Courtney Barnett. Also one of my all time favorite songs that I identify with sooo strongly had just come out and blew my mind. Sweet Sound of Ignorance. When it first came out I was already feeling like shit, so it got me especially hard. I listened to it on repeat for a long time and cried so so much.

First: yes, I am in love with most of them but they are also incredibly talented and I love a lot of the movies they starred in.
I have watched a lot of movies just because Kirsten Dunst or Christina Ricci starred in them and I honestly rarely get disappointed choosing movies to watch that way.
I had to make the distinction of them being “serious” actresses because if I had included all my favorite comedic actresses the list would be even longer. So look forward to a sequel tomorrow.- Kirsten Dunst (The Virgin Suicides, Melancholia)
- Christina Ricci (Buffalo ’66, Addams Family)
- Jodie Foster (Silence of the Lambs, Nell)

From when I was 18. I think this wasn’t originally no. 17. At some point in the last 10 year I wanted all my numbered mixes to be somewhat good, so I reworked some and replaced others. I had completely forgotten about this one. I have most of my mixes also as playlists in my music library on my computer but this one was lost for some reason. But luckily I still found the physical CD somewhere. Now I have it again. \o/

(34 min, melancholic, sweet)
This is so beautiful!! I’ve been listening to a lot of these old mixes again for the first time in a while writing them down for these posts and different mixes give me different reactions. Sometimes I cringe a bit, often I feel really sorry for the younger versions of myself because of how deeply unhappy and hopeless I was back then. When I listen to this one I am just filled with love and admiration for teenie Anna.

(54 min, mostly sad)
From when I was 16. I made this one really fast without much thought because I was having a really really bad day and just needed to take a drive and listen to music that resonated with how I was feeling. So I quickly put some stuff on there and burned a CD for the drive. I don’t remember who drove me. Either my mom or one of the caregivers in the group home.
Btw I will defend those two songs Robert Pattinson recorded for the first Twilight Soundtrack till the day I die. I know people meme on them and he’s most likely ashamed of them, because they were all removed from streaming but I still love them!

Annas Mix 20 (für Mira)
(52 min, only rap)
I made this one specifically for my sister when I was 17/18. I don’t remember why. Probably because we were doing a road trip or something and I wanted to have a mix prepared that she would for sure enjoy. She’s almost 10 years older than me and I grew up listening to a lot of rap because that’s what she was listening to.

Recently released music/film/TV/etc. recommendations
Music:
“Girlfriend” by Grace Ives (2026)
I got into her because she played at this years Primavera Sound. I had never heard of her and I am now a big fan. Girlfriend is her newest album, released in 2026. I think her 2nd album Janky Star from 2022 is her best but this ones a close 2nd. It’s Pop which I don’t always like but her stuff just sounds really good to me and the lyrics are very relatable. If you like Chappell Roan or Lorde you might like her too.
My favs from Girlfriend are “Avanlanche”, “Dance with me” and “Trouble”.
“The World Is Not Good Enough” by Sean Solomon (2026)
Another artist I’ve just recently discovered. Apparently he’s part of multiple bands, but I had never heard of any of them.
The album is kind of indie folk with a lo-fi vibe. Both the general vibes and the lyrics are quite depressing and emo, which I love.
Also he said that one of his influences is Elliott Smith which always gets bonus points from me.
If you like melancholic indie stuff like Neutral Milk Hotel or Sufjan Stevens you might like his album.
My favorite songs are “Car crash”, “Overdose” and “Remember”.Film:
“The Drama” by Kristoffer Borgli (2026)
This movie was sooo good. Mild spoilers ahead (but only stuff you find out like 15-20 min into the movie)
It’s about an engaged couple played by Robert Pattinson and Zendaya who, shortly before their wedding, hang out with a couple they are friends with and one of the friends want to play a game where everyone tells one really bad secret. When it’s Zendaya’s characters turn she reveals that she was a really alienated, angry teenager (relatable!) and that when she was in high school she planned to do a mass shooting but then didn’t end up going through with it. The friends and her fiance are really disturbed by the revelation and it completely changes their dynamic and makes him question their relationship during the time right before their wedding.
Both the acting and the script are really good. 9/10!
Show:
D.T.F. St. Louis (2026)
It stars almost exclusively actors I love from other shows or movies. Jason Bateman (Arrested Development), David Harbor (West End Girl lol), Linda Cardellini (Freaks and Geeks), Richard Jenkins (Six Feet Under) and, in a small-ish role Peter Sarsgard (Garden State).
The setting is that two straight married guys (Bateman and Harbor) start a really close friendship and one of them ends up dead. The death is being investigated by two detectives (one of them played by Jenkins). But that’s just the setting. The whole murder mystery set-up is really captivating but the show, at its core isn’t really about that in my opinion. It’s about how precious and important friendship can be, how lonely and desperate most people are deep down and how everything (people, relationships) isn’t as it seems when you judge it at first glance. The writing is soooo fucking good. It’s the best show I have seen in years and I watch a lot of TV. It is so good in fact that I watched it 2 and a half times within a couple of weeks after discovering it (shout-out to my friend Anna who recommended it) and honestly I could watch it a third time right now if someone asked me to. That’s how much I love it!! It both broke and healed me at the same time and it made me realize how much I crave the kind of love the two friends have with each other. I don’t remember ever having such a beautiful intimate friendship or relationship in general. 11/10
Book(s):
Famesick by Lena Dunham (2026)
This is Lena Dunhams 2nd memoir and I’ve read both. This one is far superior to the first one. I read a lot memoirs written by famous women. In fact it might be my favorite genre of books. I feel like I gain a lot of knowledge from reading them and I feel connected and less alone when I read about how complex and, a lot of the time, fucked up even people that I admire are.
This book is about letting yourself be treated like shit because you don’t value yourself both in relationships and at work, about how difficult it is to be a woman in the industry, how it feels to be chronically ill but forcing yourself to act and work like you aren’t. How the expectations are to work until you can’t anymore and how being a person, especially a woman in the public eye leads to being sucked dry of all your energy and scrutinized until you feel completely unlovable.
I laughed and cried and related a lot. And I gained a lot of admiration for Lena Dunham. I wasn’t always a fan and it’s easy to judge her for all the controversies she had. But I honestly can’t imagine many people not liking her after reading this.
It’s so funny and honest and incredibly well written. 10/10The Make-Believe by Hannah Murray (2026)
Another memoir by a famous woman. My favorite!
This one is written by Hannah Murray who played my favorite character in one of my favorite shows from when I was a teen: Skins. I didn’t really follow her career after that. Apparently she also played Gilly in Game of Thrones (which I never watched beyond S1 because I was so put off by all the rape scenes).
The book is specifically about how she was lulled into joining an esoteric wellness cult in her 20s and about her having a psychotic break due to undiagnosed bipolar disorder.
I’ve read multiple books by people who suffer from severe mental illness but her account of how it felt/feels to be bipolar and have psychotic delusions were really especially interesting to me. I’ve never heard such an honest unfiltered account about what can happen in your brain during psychosis. I feel like I gained a new sense of empathy for people who are bipolar and/or psychotic through reading this book.
Also the whole esoteric energy healing cult thing is really interesting. My whole family is very esoteric and I always want to stay away as far as possible from all of it. Her experiences only solidified my opinion on people who present themselves as gurus trying to sell you healing and enlightenment.
Really really interesting and well written. 9.5/10
Stand-Up:
Robby Hoffman: Wake Up (2025)
This was released very late into 2025 and it’s the second comedy special of Robby Hoffman, who you might have seen on Hacks or Rooster. She’s also married to a former Bachelorette Gaby Windey.
It’s really rare and special these days for someone to create a new comedy special that feels entirely original and not at all obnoxious or politically incorrect just for the sake of screaming how the woke left will never be able to cancel you.
Robby Hoffman’s humor is quite edgy but in such a refreshing way that I really enjoyed it. A lot of the jokes are about growing up poor, being gay and genderqueer and about the queer community. She also pokes a lot of fun at straight people.
She’s not trying to be sensitive AT ALL. In fact she’s a bit of an asshole but most great comedians are in my opinion.
Would not recommend for people who are overly sensitive when it comes to humor or who don’t enjoy some edginess.
I watched it twice already and will probably watch it again. 9/10Fediverse Reactions

(26 min, melancholic, sweet and a bit sad)
Very beautiful mix. I made this at age 15. I had just moved out of my mom’s place and I listened to it for the first while she was driving me home after visiting her. I was unhappily in love back then, my first really really hard infatuation with someone and I was also having lots of difficulties with my family.

Annas Mix 13:
(39 min, melancholic/sad)
I made this mix when I was 15 because my best friend at the time was feeling sad and I asked one of the social workers in our group home to take us for a ride so we could listen to it hoping it would cheer my friend up. I had just exchanged music collections with another caregiver and started listening to a lot of indie stuff she had shared with me like Bombay Bicycle Club, Cat Power and City & Colour. Tbh I stopped listening to a lot of the music on here. I still enjoy the first half though.

(33 min, yearning, a bit melancholic)
This was originally twice as long and I cut it down to this at some point. I remember forgetting the CD in one of the cars our group home shared and one of the caregivers listened to it and complimented my taste in music. As a very mature “old soul” teen (*cough* autistic) validation from adults or older teens meant everything to me. Btw I grew to love the last song “Green Eyes” because it was one that that one social worker (that I bonded over exchanging music collections) would always sing and play on her guitar for me.

From when I was 15. I had just started smoking cigarettes and wasn’t allowed to openly smoke in my group home yet (if you got caught smoking under the age of 16 you’d lose a couple Euros of your pocket money) because I wasn’t old enough. So I would take long walks through our village listening to this and smoking one cigarette after the other.

My all time favorite SNL cast members
I was a very avid fan of Saturday Night Live when I was a teen. At some point (around Season 40 I think) I stopped watching because most of my favorite cast members had left and I couldn’t really get into the new generation.
Last year I started catching up again and am now up to the date on the last few seasons (S48/49 – S51 I think).
I also over time have watched a lot of random sketches from the 90s but very little from the 70s and 80s. So I have a lot of gaps in my knowledge and I think it’s probably pretty obvious which seasons I grew up on and therefore prefer over the other eras by the cast member I love most.- Bill Hader

Annas Mix 6:
(31 min, mixed emotions, but not too much of a downer)
Very good mix. Still from around the time I was 14.
“Too much on my Mind” really spoke to me at that time. It’s one of the few songs I put on more than one Mix.

Not one of my favourites. It’s not bad but there wasn’t a lot of thought put into it.
I think during this time I was really enthusiastic about making lots of mixes all the time but wasn’t close to as perfectionist as I am now with the composition of mixes. I just put on a bunch of songs I liked on a playlist and burned it on CD.
“The State I Am In” by Belle and Sebastian
“Fill My Eyes” by Cat Stevens
“Corrina, Corrina” by Bob Dylan

I love all of the songs on this but the mix itself is still not one of the better ones. I love “Always See Your Face” as a closer. It’s one of the most perfect songs to ever exist imo.
