Music: February Favorites

The last time I penned anything lengthier than 140 characters about music was probably during the times of xanga.

Today was a busy day at the office. I was feeling a little inspired, and a little chaotic. Nonetheless, this playlist really brought me back down to earth.

This past week, a lot of these artists got some play, and I decided to make the playlist which you can play below. There’s a few classic artists from the 2000’s. Some lesser-known indie stars and small-stage producers that never really stole that big post-millennium spotlight they so deserved. Lastly, some rulebreakers like Toro y Moi and Best Coast.

So many of these artists just completely shaped my formative years. It’s like smelling a box of crayons — the nostalgia just completely overtakes. Enjoy!
