Just crawling out of a deep pit of anxiety that lasted the weekend and some and completely incapacitated me. Only soothing sounds pls.
Nicolas Jaar - Tourists
I love pretty much everything Nicolas Jaar produces, but his alternative soundtrack to The Colour of Pomegranates hasn't been the record on most heavy rotation. But then this came on between some other random tunes and it was so subtle and understated it gave me shivers.
DJ Python - Pia
New discovery. Very slow build album. Love music that takes its time to unfold.
Bess Atwell - Co-op
I've returned to listening to BBC6 in the mornings, because I need voices and some sense of communal life to keep me distracted from bad thoughts. Then this came on and it was very beautiful. It felt like I was back in London for a bit.
Mary Lattimore - Thirty Tulips
Attention to small things helps. Insects, flowers, smells. The world.
Dua Lipa - Love Again
Only gave Dua Lipa a proper listening to last week and was surprised at how much I liked this, and then my former housemate and good friend Miriam just posted videos of her performing with Dua Lipa today. Including this song. So this is clearly the bridge from soothing to cheering up.
