IIL music so beautiful it gives you a physical feeling, almost like a body high, WEWIL?
I’ve spent a really long time building and refining a playlist around one specific feeling that’s difficult for me to put into words. I’m looking for music that feels bigger than just listening to music. The kind of song where the production, atmosphere, melody, vocals or sampling hits just right and you almost feel it physically, like a body high. Something that completely absorbs you for a few minutes and makes everything around you disappear. I want music that feeds the soul. I’m chasing, ethereal, nostalgic, melancholic, euphoric, mesmerizing, psychedelic, dreamy, lush, hazy, atmospheric, nocturnal, celestial, spiritual, hypnotic like floating outside yourself, remembering something that never happened, staring into space, or seeing light after being surrounded by darkness. Genre doesn’t really matter to me. If a song creates that feeling, it belongs. I’ve tried to make the playlist less of a genre playlist and more of a collection of the beauty and essence I find in music, songs from completely different worlds that somehow produce the same emotional response. My list is currently 800+ songs and I’ve tried to be extremely selective despite the size. I’ve also arranged it roughly from the songs I consider the greatest downward, while mixing artists and genres instead of grouping everything together. It’s currently on Spotify and Apple Music if anyone wants the full thing, I’ll put both links below/in the comments depending on what the sub allows. But I’m also posting because I know there has to be music I’ve never encountered that creates this exact feeling.
What song gives you that feeling?
Not necessarily your favorite song. I mean the one that makes you stop what you’re doing, put your headphones on, close your eyes and just disappear for a while.
Give me anything. Any genre, country, language or decade. I want to find the songs I’m still missing.
