Music Corner 21: Dec. 1-15th music

Lately I've been buying some CDs and cassettes, and also trying to organize my steaming music a bit more, creating some playlists and "mixtapes".

Mixtapes

So, they are not physical tapes (yet), but I've been trying to create mixtapes online, putting a bit more effort into making selections, having a time limit. I think that's nicer than having just a few playlists that are several hours long.
For today, I have something I created after seeing some fun videos on TikTok about polyJAMorous (like, listening to different styles of music). It's not as diverse as I would like, but let's see how the next one will play out. The theme for this one is "earworm", songs that will get stuck on your head!

Tracklist

  1. Ikkyu-san (WEDNESDAY CAMPANELLA)
  2. Diggy Diggy Hole (Wind Rose)
  3. MACARONI CHEESE (YOUNG POSSE)
  4. Nuestra Canción (Monsieur Periné feat. Vicente García)
  5. Acenda o farol (Tim Maia)
  6. Mary On A Cross (Ghost)
  7. Big Time Changes (Seikima-II)
  8. You Get What You Give (New Radicals)
  9. Tu was du willst (Madeline Juno)
  10. vampire (Olivia Rodrigo)
  11. Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go (Wham!)
  12. Just Can't Get Enough (Depeche Mode)
  13. Very Very Very (I.O.I)

Discovered

Recently I got introduced to Kiss Of Life (thanks TikTok), and whoa, I really like it!

I also listened to SWAN - Twenty. I discovered it kinda by accident because I found that it has a cassette release

Listened To

This happy playlist that can make you day better

YENA[1] is very fun to listen to, and her MVs are so cool! The K-Rising[2] playlist on Youtube is a nice way to discover some new k-pop
Have also been listening a bit to the album Guts by Olivia Rodrigo[3], and IM NAEYON[4]
