21/16 - By the Foot of Yon' Mountain Lays a Clear Flowing Fountain

I am not doing an awful lot these days. And I'm enjoying it royally. Reading books, pottering in the garden, napping frequently, catching up on TV – I am surprisingly content with staying away from production for a bit. Five soothing songs to reinforce my self-imposed inertia:



Juana Molina - Vive Solo

I do not live alone. Luckily. Having housemates around to cook dinner and watch Stranger Things with is, I suspect, what stops these lazy days from tipping into depressing lethargy.


John Martyn - Spencer the Rover

An absolutely delicious song about the bliss of returning to a hearth and sooth one's restlessness for a while after confused roaming and rambling. But "contented he'll remain and not ramble away"...? I have reason to doubt it.


Emilie Simon - Baby Penguins

Peak decompressing time. I'm building a nest. I don't need the rest of London. All is homely and cute and assuring. Baby penguins tiptoe past.


Julianna Barwick - Someway

Breakfast in the sun. What more do you need?


Sophie Rimheden - Touch

Slight notes of dissonance enter. Obviously I should get out do stuff... meet people...
