Playlist for the World

In Mixtapes we learned about music through its cultural origins. Our primary focus had been on Jazz and the Blues, and how they had inspired future genres. Another learning opportunity we were given was the chance to learn new instruments. When we did this, we were completely unprepared for what lay ahead, none of us were ready to hold a new instrument that we may have never thought of playing before, but it ended up being fun. We also got to participate in “Daily DJ” where we each got to bring in music for a day and talk about it with the rest of the class. For our AP we were told to pick five songs for a playlist we thought would work for the Pitchfork Music Festival. I really enjoyed this project because it allowed me to delve into songs I already loved. I also like that I get to share my music and my opinion about the world with my peers. At first, I found it difficult to find a theme to work with. I got past this problem by picking songs that I felt complimented each other before really linking them together with a theme or idea. Please enjoy my playlist below.
