November Mood

Well, it’s November, and usually by this time, I have either made a Fall playlist and listened to it ad nauseum for the last two months, or decided that I didn’t need a new one at all. It’s not like me to actually make a Fall playlist in November. Except this year, I did.

I have a new playlist to share! It contains 20 new-to-me tracks, and is pretty similar to most of my other non-themed playlists. If you like those, you’ll probably like this 🙂

Coffee and Keyboard 3

I cranked out a new volume of my Coffee and Keyboard series this weekend. C&K playlists are 2 hours long, and feature upbeat instrumentals in a variety of styles. The idea is to help you focus without putting you to sleep.

Quiet Time Christmas, Polka Dot Radio Playlist by Lisa Clarke

Like quiet Christmas music for studying, reading, knitting, or sleeping to? You might enjoy the Quiet Time Christmas playlist. It’s the latest in the Quiet Time series, and it’s just like the others, except there might just be mention of silver bells in there somewhere.

Robots Need Love, Too

I published two new playlists last week: Quiet Time 11, and Robots Need Love, Too. That’s ten new playlists this year, ranging in style from bedtime music, to work-friendly instrumentals, to classic tunes from the 60’s through the 90’s, to current indie pop/rock and alternative mixes. My taste can be a bit eclectic.

If you like Beck, Bleachers, The Decemberists, Blind Pilot, Wilco, and Darlingside (to name a few), you should like this new Summer playlist. And if you don’t know who those people are, but you like my other mixes, then you should still probably like it.
