Sonic Soul Maintenance
Since September of 2018, I have been creating playlists for each month. I can confidently say that it has helped my sanity tenfold. No more giant ‘Liked Songs’ playlist or overwhelming antiquated (to my current taste) melodies. It has been pleasant to connect the songs I find to the time I find them. Each year I also provided myself with a theme in which I would name the playlists and one instruction: the first letter of the month had to correspond to the first letter of whichever element I picked from that theme (example: the month of August in 2022 would mean I picked a Turkish city that began with A, in this case, I chose Ankara). Below are each month’s playlist and the song that I am repeating currently.
