Albums Getting Me Through 2025

items An unlikely compilation, maybe, but these are the albums and playlists I keep returning to this year. They’ve become the soundtracks to my creative sessions, moments in the sun, solo dance breaks, road trips, and everything in between. In the notes f...

Albums
A mix of new and old albums I’m revisiting for grounding, comfort, and a gentle way of giving my past selves a hug, some flower, and a slow ride into a beach sunset.
Still very much in heavy rotation. wacced out murals and Dodger Blue are my favorite tracks.
Kendrick Lamar - GNX
1
Standout tracks for me are “E.B.I.I.T.D.A,” “Chains & Whips” (finally know Kendrick’s full verse!), and “POV.” Solid listen all the way through. I could do without Pharrell’s singing, but the instrumentals, especially on “Chains & Whips,” are...
Clipse - Let God Sort Em' Out
2
This album has strong reviews from all sides, but for me, it’s a mood. I’ve been listening while painting and driving. The first track sets the tone perfectly, and in my head I hear a Kaytranada‑style mashup. Favorites right now: “My Old Ways,” “Afte...
Tame Impala - Deadbeat
3
This might be my favorite album of all time. I first heard Glass Animals on Apple One Radio when Crissles was guest DJing and introduced “Black Mambo.” I was hooked and discovered “Gooey” and the full Zaba album on Spotify. Every version is solid, th...
Glass Animals - Zaba
2
After Zaba, this is my favorite Glass Animals album. I love revisiting the instrumentals here too. I usually suggest starting with Zaba if you’re new to them.
Glass Animals - Dreamland
2
I rediscovered this album while digging through my iPod Shuffle over the summer. It’s my least favorite Glass Animals album, but every revisit reveals something new. Revisiting music from your past selves while painting… highly recommend, though some...
Glass Animals - How To Be A Human Being
2
I randomly found “Tear in Space” and realized I hadn’t listened to their newest album. This one hits just as hard at the others- the instrumentals, Dave’s vocals, it all bangs. no notes.
Glass Animals - I Love You So F***ing Much
1
I needed this album when it first came out during a harsh winter. My favorites that I always loop when revisiting are “Stay Flo,” “Jerrod,” and “Sound of Rain.” My absolute favorite is “Exit Scott (Interlude)”; those 60 seconds are pure poetry. It ev...
Solange - When I Get Home
2
There have been too many days when all I needed was to sit in the sun, listen to this album, and cry. Solange is building a timeless archive of emotion; this album is a masterclass in what only music can express.
Solange - A Seat At The Table
2
Aries gang ♈️! I love this album. I listened to it on a spring beach trip, and it made me want to keep playing it on repeat even after the trip ended. Favorite tracks are “Chicago Boy,” “I Been,” and “Whipped Cream.”
Ari Lennox - Shea Butter Baby
1
I’m slowly catching up on Bad Bunny’s full discography during my creative sessions, and I really enjoyed this album. Mis favoritas actuales son “Otro Atardecer,” “Aguacero,” y “El Apagón.”
Bad Bunny – Un Verano Sin Ti
2
Painting to Bad Bunny’s music has been a fun way to get to know his discography. It’s nearly impossible to paint without dancing. I’m using this as an excuse to brush up on my Spanish and learn more about Puerto Rican history. Mis favoritas actuales ...
BAD BUNNY - DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS

Curated Playlists - Various Artists
I made these playlists so I could loop the songs I love without hunting for them every time. Then I thought, why not share them and see who else vibes with them. So here they are.
Slowly compiling my favorite Glass Animals instrumental tracks 🍍🎧 I listen to these when I journal or need to deep work with familiar vibes
My Favorite Glass Animals Instrumentals | Playlist
This playlist has quietly become a banger. I built it slowly while listening to chillhop radio, when a track really clicked, I saved it. These songs are the tail-end of a mega playlist I’ve been compiling for years.
DND (instrumentals I paint to) | Playlist
1
A mix of some of my favorite sounds at the moment. These tracks simultaneously make it hard to sit still in my opinion. Not a working playlist per se, but perfect for painting, driving, or just vibin'. I promise it’ll at least have you head-bobbin’.
Current Grooves on Repeat😵💫💃🏾 | Youtube Playlist

A short playlist of some of my favorite tracks by Sir. Not all of them, but a little appetizer of moods. Mostly nightcap energy, but also chill and relaxing, definitely a nice way to wind down.
Hair Down - W$T Coast Wave🌊 (new cover coming soon)
About four hours of mostly lo-fi chillhop-ish playlist, I’ve built brick by brick 🧱😂 over the years and have transferred from Spotify. My instrumental DND playlist was created from this original curated list/project
Unwind & Reset – XXL Mix
