2015 in music
I published this piece quite a while ago. Though I enjoy the art of
public record-keeping, you should know it may no longer reflect my
views.
In many ways, 2015 was a transformative year for me.
Much of my soundtrack of 2015 is made up of party songs that played at the bars I used to frequent while I was living in Haarlem. The feelings invoked by some of these songs are entirely devoted to a particular crush I would have had at the time.
Each song has the capacity to bring me back precisely to that period of time, in such a way that my body feels it. When everything seemed uncertain, rollercoaster-scary, and every fiber in me was yearning yearning yearning for whatever was perpetually out of reach.
