MIX NO. 54 // SPRING VIBES II

Ah spring. A lovely time of year when the days are fairly nice and sunny. I want to be spending more time outdoors and, of course, driving with the windows down. Who would pass up the chance for a nice pool day? There are so many good things to love about springtime, and one very niche one I tend to enjoy is the difference in my musical moods. Is it weird to have musical moods? I don’t know. I’ve always felt like I go through cycles just like the seasons. In fall and winter I’m more toned down, moody, and calm whereas in spring and summer I want the bass drops, pop tunes, upbeat fun stuff, and the chill laid back stuff. Maybe it’s not niche, maybe it’s fairly normal or people just don’t realize it.

Either way, I digress. I feel like every time I sit down to curate a Monthly Mix there are just certain go-to’s I find myself making year after year. I’m talking about the vibes playlists, holidays, and, of course, yacht rock. I kinda love having these staples because they are fun to experiment with and see how they change over time. There is also the simple fact that making playlists and mixes is hard especially themed mixes. There can be a lot of pressure to come up with a theme and the contents within it not to mention one that other people would be interested in listening to. These staple playlists are crowd-pleasers and I just love making them.

This year’s entry into the vibes collection is Spring Vibes II and it contains a mixture of songs for laidback hangouts, sunny days, and maybe enjoying a nice drink or two by the pool. Whatever you’re doing, enjoy 1 hour and 15 minutes of good tunes.
