August 2020 | Playlist of the Month



Okay, okay. Things are getting out of hand, in general. I'm just trying to fight off the anxiety. How are you doing? Keep yourself afloat, boo! The "ber months" are here and 2021 is only a blink away. It's that quick!


Artists were pretty quick with their new music releases, too. Seems like everyone got inspired from Taylor Swift's full album drop last month. BLACKPINK likes breaking the internet (and even included Selena Gomez), don't they? 🍦


I have this full playlist of my song choices (new and old). But I'm not gonna be fair right now and highlight 88rising's new venture, Paradise Rising - a project to promote the promising artists in the regions in Asia, starting with the Philippines!


semilucent is a five-track euphony of dreamy and floaty tunes from the PH's upcoming artists: Jason Dhakal, Leila Alcasi, Moophs, Massiah, Fern., and Kiana V.


In the Philippines, we have this phrase, "walang tapon" which roughly means "nothing to be thrown away".


And this album is truly WALANG TAPON! Each track seamlessly connects to another. It tells a complete story of whatever you think it tells you: love, loss, chasing your dreams, or the never-ending journey of finding purpose. Experience it on my playlist below.
