Well, it seems as though the cold weather is calling. And honestly, it’s been a minute since we curated a soundtrack for your everyday life that pulls in a multitude of brand-new tracks from a variety of genres. We’ve been plotting and scheming for 2024 and, in the meantime, want to ensure we are continuing to bring the best new music finds directly to you. Thank you for your continued friendship and inspiration as a part of this artistic, joyful community.
Well, since we are well overdue, let’s get to it. We scraped around several of our (incredibly full) inboxes. Then we sifted through an abundance of music groups and Google updates. Admittedly, we found some pretty incredible new audible art. The tone of each track brings with it a sense of appreciation. Be it a celebration, an examination of the soul, or a story of love — for anything, really. Some of the most impactful work we have heard lately has included vocal-free tracks. These have allowed us to embrace the magic of man-made instrument, and, often, to indulge in the way said instruments engage with silence.
It’s been a while since we released a soundtrack feature, especially one of our own curation. But life got in the way. Incredible opportunities career-wise for our contributors, big moves, personal setbacks, and more fed into the distance we felt growing between us and the music. But music is our source of wellness and joy. It inspires us. It gets us moving to a rhythm that sustains our productivity. And we thrive in its presence.
So we are BACK with a vengeance… and a bangin’ new June soundtrack feature, featuring all of the new tracks that bring us joy. New sounds are brought to you by artists like Amaara, The Japanese House, Zolita, and more. Check back all June long for new additions, and keep your eyes peeled for more movement and newness at ImperfectFifth.com!
If you want to be in your feels with me, this playlist is definitely for you 🙂 I love that all of these songs have a storytelling aspect to them that makes you feel like you are experiencing the moment/emotion with the singer. One of my favorite parts about music is that even if you didn’t go through exactly what the songwriter did, you’re able to understand and relate to the narrative in your own way.
This is a fun playlist of some of the soul artists from around Australia that have inspired me lately! Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed putting it together.
Here’s a selection of tunes from our favorite artists that all pertain to a nature/plant/flower theme. Come chill with us in the garden!
