Good Morning Mix: Calvin Harris’s 2011 Essential Mix
Before Calvin Harris achieved eye-opening status, broke the records of pop legends, and landed on Forbes’ “Top Earning Celebrities Under 30 List,” the now-superstar had been thoroughly developing his artistry. From humble beginnings he left his job working at a grocery store, began singing over his own production efforts, was recognized and signed to a label thanks to MySpace, and began tweaking his work from there. 2011 was a crucial year for his career timeline as he attempted to distance himself from 2009’s Ready For The Weekend and started producing the album that would become 18 Months. Calvin’s year was translated for the world that May in the version of a two-hour Essential Mix. Listen through, enter his time portal, and follow along with the tracklist beneath the break.
