For Nancy (‘Cos It Already Is) – Pete Yorn

Era 1999 y por alguna razón escuché una canción llamada (Just Another) en un programa de radio de Los Ángeles, en aquel entonces no supe quien era el tipo que cantaba esa canción, pero lo hacía con un gran sentimiento, por la calidad de la transmisión no entendía mucho la letra ni lo que decía el locutor durante el programa, pero años mas tarde descubrí una canción titulada (For Nancy) e inmediato supe que se trataba de Pete Yorn, estaba feliz de haberlo descubierto y justo regresé de clases en la universidad para escucharlo.

That Miserable Man Milligan – Harris Cole

In the mood for a beat instrumental next on this playlist, I decided to add this laid back track by young Chicago-based producer Harris Cole. I came across Harris Cole’s music on a playlist of beats on Spotify. This track is off of his late 2016 release, “Pause.” 

Part 2 – Given Circumstances

Days merge into weeks and I receive nothing except a printed acknowledgement of my application forcing me to scan adverts for other work. ‘Need to earn some money somehow. Can’t leave you with all the bills, mum.’

And then the phone rings. I turn down Alan Freeman who’s running through the Top Twenty on the radio. Outside the sun’s broken through.

‘Hello?’

A female voice honeys down the receiver. ‘Can I speak to Mister Robert Hopebourne?’…

Sandal – Yüzyüzeyken Konuşuruz

Yüzyüzeyken Konuşuruz genç dinleyicinin çok uzun süredir tanıdığı bir grup. Oldukça iyi işler yapıyorlar. Zaman zaman ufak değişiklikler geçirseler de genellikle tarzlarında dinleyiciyi rahatsız eden olumsuz bir değişim olmuyor. İlk şarkılarını sadece youtube üzerinden servis eden ve yüzünü göstermeyen grubu o zamanlar sadece vokal Kaan Boşnak’ın kadraja giren gitarı sigarasıyla tanıyorduk.

Emma – music2work2

One of the earlier music2work2 tracks, it has been played over 120,000 times on YouTube and has a small but loyal group of people who swear by it.  Coming in at just shy of 20 minutes it is one long extended development that goes all over the place and yet still retains some weird kind of identity.

Rubbin Off The Paint – YBN Nahmir

While promoting my own artist from Alabama I came across this young guy who really impressed me. Only 17 and from Birmingham, Alabama Nick Simmons aka YBN Nahmir had built a huge fan base before he even broke one record in the music industry.

Heightened Intimacy – Anantakara ft. Mukti

We proudly present to you the first submitted track that makes it to the playlist, Anantakara and Mukti’s Heightened Intimacy, a spiritual journey through sound, a piece that seems to be floating on air, giving you a certain  peaceful stillness that allows you to reflect on everything and everyone.

Walk – Foo Fighters

Sometimes life throws sand in your eyes, shoves you to the ground, and puts the whole weight of the world on top of you. In these moments you have a choice. You can stay down and let life zoom past you, or, you can lick your wounds and regain your balance by striding one foot in front of the other towards the goal line. 

Afterlife – Tchami (feat. Stacy Barthe)

Sometimes the most superhuman thing we can do is acknowledge our mortality. 

All heroes know that there’s a very good chance they can be defeated, and what comes next? Where do we go in the Afterlife? It’s important that we make peace with this fact if we’re to stay brave in the face of Danger; if we don’t, we might find ourselves succumbing to the Great Unknown…

Southern Gothic – Tyminski

Must be something in the muddy water, turns the whiskey ‘bout as sweet as sin. Every drunk in town can sing a brown bag hymn…”  Whaaaaa?! Play that back a couple times… with such thought-provoking lyrics, Southern Gothic by Tyminski is meant for this playlist.

Oran – Cal Tjader

The jellyfish is busy – pressed for time.  Survival is a series of opportunities, and any missed chance could be your last.  The ocean is vast and full of chances to stay alive, but they won’t all come to you of their own accord.  The jellyfish must move and keep moving.
