March Meanderings
“Lyrics should wander and meander. They should fly like owls and flicker like bats and slip like cats. They should murmur and scream and dance and sing.”
I know what you are going to say before you even say it. March is over. It’s April. It’s done, finished, kaput, terminado. What interest do I have in a March playlist in April?
And you would be right, for that I can only apologise.
This playlist comes to you from Cartagena, Columbia, and the city has thrust itself into Easter celebrations with typically Latin fervour. Whilst spitballing ideas for a theme for this months’ mixtape, I considered a couple of topics, mostly beginning with a M. March Melancholy? Im not sure I know enough sad songs. March Madness? I think we can all agree than everyone has had enough of Skrillex and Diplo at this point.
I settled on Meandering, because that seemed apt considering given my current geographical location, and the selection of songs I hava selected. Blues, Hip-hop, Deep-house, Electronica, there’s something in here for every taste. I hope you enjoy, and that It’s not the last time I’m invited to do a playlist. I might start planning November’s now…
