Playlist

I have heard talk that a playlist will always feel polished and clean and intentional and that they will never have the gritty, in the moment feel that a cassette mix has. My response to that claim is that about 1/3 of the files contained on my personal playlists are either leaked or live recordings of unreleased material. In the same way you could go and buy a nice clean album on a cassette in the 90’s I can do the same online today, so why would I take time to include a common, and easily found file on a unique playlist? One of the comments Sheffield makes about why he likes a mix tape is that its a very active process, you have to be actively listening to the radio and ready to hit record to get the song you want. I have no equivalent in my modern playlisting habits, the process has changed, the challenge has changed. Instead of having an single, tiny, microscopic feed of music on the radio, I have the entirety of all the music, sound clips and pieces of dialogue that have ever been uploaded to the internet at…

• This playlist is aimed to assist removing a person from a negative headspace or despondence, lacklustre feelings to a buoyant, motivated state. Music with a slow rhythm begins the playlist to draw out negative emotions, and then transitions into songs of a combined jauntier and sombre note as a bridge between the first and last songs. Finally, it concludes with songs with a faster rhythm, crying out voices, primarily used as a cathartic headspace. Primarily, by enveloping themselves into these…

After some rewatching of Extra Credits' Spooky Playlist, I've thought of a idea. The main idea is merely a symbolic sound, reaching with the psychological trees they stated (Self, Uncanny, Other)... Everyone is familiar with certain machinery or instruments making music, having a liking of a genre or 2+, and overall other things in their life. The way I think this would be different from other Ambient works is that it's more than sound patterns and such that inflict emotional manipulation, but…

Cordell Winward The songs on Ichabod Crane’s playlist would have songs about being ravenous, superstitious, and smart. The first song on his playlist is “Just Eat It” by “Weird Al” Yankovic. Washington Irving wrote “The revenue arising from his school was scarcely sufficient to furnish him with daily bread bread, for he was a huge feeder…” (18). “Weird Al” Yankovic sings about this with being ravenous with these lyrics “So eat it, just eat it/ Have some more chicken/ Have some more pie/ Open…

What’s one thing that would motivate you to want to get up and clean when you would rather be in bed reading a book or getting those few extra hours of sleep? Music. Music is a powerful motivator when the task at hand is boring and tiresome. It can get you up and make you actually enjoy the task at hand. What you would need in times like this is a good cleaning playlist to listen to that can get you up and working fast and efficiently. I believe that a good cleaning playlist would have to follow…

The company’s Chief of Mission Assurance and former NASA astronaut, Jeff Ashby, talk about the life changing experience it will be and…

It has been generally accepted that listening to music can improve mental health as it has the ability to divert us from stress by promoting positive state of mind (MacDonald & Wilson, 2014). In the society we currently live in, the self-awareness of most people is diminishing progressively since individuals are often overwhelmed with works and other activities, reducing the time spent for themselves. We often fail to realize that time for ourselves is essential since it would reboot our brain,…

cultural desires and consciousness in their ads, to inform consumers about their product or service while also trying to persuade them to buy it. In one particular Taylor Swift ad, advertisers use techniques such as association, product placement, and claims in their commercial in order to convey enough emotion so consumers buy their service. Taylor Swift’s career has transformed her into a huge cultural desire which is why she was chosen to become the face of Apple Music. Taylor commercial…

time to get on a plane and fly to California, the land of non-cold. I welcome you to join me. For the trip, I’ve built a playlist of nine grooving songs to put us in a California state of mind. You may be wondering why I have chosen nine songs to feature rather than ten despite the fact that there are hundreds of California-centric songs to choose from. The explanation is obvious: Everything about California is odd. Let’s get started! What better way is there to take off than with Flea and…
