NOVEMBER PLAYLIST
this months playlist is a good old dose of melancholy. i created this playlist whilst i was on an artists residency in mallorca in november 2021. i was expecting to arrive to 3 weeks on a beautiful sunny island, but to my surprise, it rained almost everyday. i’d make a cup of tea in the morning, make a dash through the rain to my studio which had a glass roof and a small fire place. i’d sit and start my day by making a fire, listening to this playlist and the ambient sound of rain drops on the glass roof. at the start of my residency i’d shed a few tears in the morning, from feeling a little homesick and creatively stagnant. this playlist helped me feel those feelings and move through them, soon feeling at home and in my flow, letting go of what expectations i had and softening into the experience i was served. it was slow, it was wet, it was gentle and it was eventually really heartwarming.
