a few picks from the first playlist i found online. prior to finding it sometime in 2014, i only really listened to what was on the radio or CDs my mother had lying around. this playlist begun to shape the foundations of my taste in music and its impact on me is still evident to this day.
i used to regularly watch Daniel Brynolf's game dev streams on Twitch while he was working on Cobalt — a game published by Mojang (you might know them from Minecraft). i always loved his stream's background music so i asked if he had a playlist and he linked to this one. signed up for Spotify to listen to it and fell in love playing it on loop almost every day for a while!
the original playlist, Excellent Craft ✈, is on Spotify.
Entity by Jennie Abrahamson #
in this track, Swedish indie artist Jennie Abrahamson blends featherlight electronic production with her serene vocals. it strikes my heart in some special kinda way. i get lost in it.

Ballad of the War Machine by Midnight Juggernauts #
eerie synthpop track built on a dreamy arpeggio backbone, incredibly fitting for an album titled Uncanny Valley.

Do It Again by Röyksopp & Robyn #
super super good edm-pop track. has me head-bopping all the way through every single time.
