      Music to Quarantine By

      By Gabriela Olivas, Skyline Reporter

       

      During these strange and anxiety-inducing times, listening to music offers a therapeutic and enjoyable way to pass the hours.  Maybe you’re finding solace in older songs, or maybe you’re looking for new music to inspire you.

      Either way, here are a few suggestions to help soothe your soul during the dog days of social distancing. Feel free to share your favorites with us on social media too.

       

      Young Turks – 2019

       

      FKA Twigs – Mary Magdalene

      Genre: Art pop, Electronic

      Key Tracks: Cellophane, Home with You, Holy Terrain, Mirrored Heart

      FKA Twigs is an English singer-songwriter and former dancer. Her album Magdalene contains beautiful melodies with haunting and personal lyrics detailing her painful experience with infertility and the loss of a significant relationship. It sounds depressing but raw and moving. If you’re in the mood for some deep feels, check this one out.

      RCA Records – 2019

       

       

       

      KAYTRANADA – BUBBA

      Genre: R&B/Soul

      Key tracks: Culture, 10%, Freefall, Scared to Death, Need It

      Kaytranada is a Haitian-Canadian electronic music producer and Bubba features a bevy of guest artists creating hypnotic instrumental beats.

      Bubba is perfect if you’re craving something to dance to like no one’s watching. Or just sit back and chill to the groovy sounds.

       

       

      SM Entertainment – 2020

       

       

       

      NCT 127 – Neo Zone

      Genre: K-pop

      Key Tracks: Kick It, Love Song, Not Alone, White Night, Day Dream

      NCT 127 is an experimental offshoot of the South Korean boy band NCT. The tracks on Neo Zone explore a variety of genres, including soul, hip-hop, and 80’s power ballads. Although the songs are mostly in Korean, the hooks are in English and you’ll likely catch yourself singing along. Even if you don’t speak or understand Korean, there is plenty to love about this album. Music is a universal language, after all. And as NCT band member Haechan, said, “You can always translate languages, but you can’t translate instruments.” Whatever, Haechan. For the ultra-curious, English translations of the lyrics are available online.

       

       

       

      4AD – 2019

       

       

       

      Grimes – Miss Anthropocene

      Genre: Industrial, Pop, Electropop

      Key Tracks: Violence, So Heavy I Fell Through the Earth, You’ll Miss Me When I’m Not Around, IADORU

      Grimes is a Canadian instrumentalist and singer who dabbles in a variety of genres, including dream pop, electronic music, and R&B. Her music has been described as otherworldly and ethereal. Her album Miss Anthropocene is a good choice if you’re looking to get inspired creatively. It’s also good for those late-night baking or cleaning sessions, if you’re prone to those.

       

       

       

      Lucila Taba – 2018

       

       

       

       

      1915 – Bandera

      Genre: Rock

      Key Tracks: Olas, Dame una Bandera, El Enemigo

      1915 is a rock band from Buenos Aires. Ever since I first heard their song Olas, I’ve been hooked on their smooth sound. Bandera is a perfect album for studying or relaxing in the afternoon sunshine.
