In the mood for something a tad trip-hoppy, maybe? Heroine by Blonde Redhead from the album 23.
Today’s Track – Sneller, Eefje De Visser
Let’s go Dutch today! Sneller by Eefje de Visser from the album Het is, 2013.
Today’s Track – A Moor – Raleigh Ritchie
In honor of the kick off of the new season of Game of Thrones, how ’bout a little something from Grayworm himself? A Moor by Raleigh Ritchie from the album You’re a Man Now, Boy, 2016.
Today’s Track – Dawn Raiding, Rose Smith
I’m off to Geneva today, so I thought a tune out of Switzerland was apropos. Dawn Raiding by Rose Smith from the album of the same name, 2002.
Today’s Track – Love & War, Anthony Hamilton & Macy Gray
One of my favorite duets of late. Love and War by Anthony Hamilton and Macy Gray from the album Soulife, 2005.
Today’s Track – Pink + White, Frank Ocean
I thought this one was appropriate for the upcoming Valentine’s Day holiday! Pink + White by Frank Ocean from the album Blond, 2016.
Today’s Track – No One Knows, Asa
Something acoustic & beautiful. No One Knows by Asa from the album Acoustic Live in Tokyo, 2008.
Today’s Track – Lauren, Men I Trust
This song has been in constant rotation as I’ve been traveling around Europe this week. A mellow yet slightly uptempo tune that gently reminds me “I can’t stay forever”… Lauren – the single – by Men I Trust, 2016.
Today’s Track – Don’t You Know, Kungs
I leave for Europe tomorrow; off to take in the Maison et Objet trade fair in Paris, and do a bit of shopping and exploring some other areas. So, I thought something French would be good to get me in the mood. And while this track doesn’t sound typically French per se, it is bonifiedly (which is technically not a real word) out of Aix-en-Provence. Don’t You Know by Kungs, 2016.
Today’s Track – Rain Water, Brother Ali
I’ve been in Atlanta this week, walking the Gift Show and exploring the retail scene. But truth be told, I’m a little homesick. (Can that be right? I’m usually pretty “present”, wherever I am.) Anyway, maybe a dose of Minneapolis sound will tide me over ’til my flight home. Rain Water by Bother Ali from the album Champion, 2004.
Today’s Track – Lovely Day, alt-J
Wow. So, back to reality this week after some time off has proved slightly more chaotic than one would like… I suppose I should have mentally prepared better for life beyond lounging in yoga pants, leisurely lunches with friends and binge watching Game of Thrones. Work just seems quite busy in comparison, no? So, something so so soothing on this lovely day. Lovely Day by alt-J from the album This is All Yours, 2014.
