Love Echoes To The Cosmos Mix (+Download)
As a true r&b/soul music junkie, it is not easy to find NEW songs about genuine romantic love between two people. These days, we are stuck with basic club and sex anthems, with the occasional heartbroken melody breaking through the airwaves. The other day, I was randomly inspired while designing collage concepts based on the beautiful aesthetics of the film Black Orpheus, to curate a list filled with current artists who speak on love and deeper experiences. I have done love-based mixes with heavier themes of lust, like Tease, Close, and Love Maker. This one is a bit different and has a classic soul – funk – jazz feel. The…

Light It and Play Me (+Download)
Light It and Play Me is an incredible vibe that I curated especially for those similar to myself. It is an unspoken ritual to light something and jam out to good music. Whether it is with a candle, some incense sticks, Palo Santo, or a pipe stuffed with herbs, I frequently vibe out to some music as I recharge and reflect. You might get this feel while listening to my previous selections, as well. I feel now to be the perfect moment to finally drop this mix—as we head into a new year with expanding perspectives. Both this one and the next mix I’m dropping have been a long time…

Healing In The Garden [432Hz] (+Download)
Today is nationally celebrated as Earth Day, and is thus the perfect moment to make my latest mix available. I have created Healing In The Garden specifically for reflective purpose. My own spiritual grounding has been extremely necessary in these times. Listening closely might hurt a bit, as I intend the themes of this mix to be true to phases of self-actualization some of us experience as humans. And so, this one is not all sweet, but purging pain is a pivotal part of the healing process. As a woman who lives in the city while being drawn to nature, I am often dreaming of gardens and various natural locations…

Pre-Valentine’s Stress Mix (+Download)
My first selection of 2017 is live! It so happened that I was finally done with this in time for the season of love, inspiring the title Pre-Valentine’s Stress. This also features a relatable soundbite from an anime series called Nana. I personally have only ever experienced one celebratory Valentine’s Day and I don’t stress holidays. That being stated, I am aware that many are out there going through some stress, beyond the seasonal theme. I hope those of you who relate find that your aching hearts are soothed by these smooth and etheric jams. Remember that you ARE love and you are loved. Every relationship we develop in life…

Tease Mix (+Download)
Tease is a list I wanted to release by the holiday. It showcases some wonderful new artists I’ve come across in the past months, as well as familiars I have featured previously, and a few classics. All of this music came out this year and it is safe to say that my interest in recent r&b-inspired music is being restored. If only I could turn on the popular radio waves and hear music this good, at anytime. I think we can get there, but for now I’m fine with documenting these gems through my unique mixes. Happy holidays to everyone! Do not forget to support the artists by purchasing their…

Liberating The Captive Consciousness (+Download)
Liberating The Captive Consciousness is a meaningful selection I compiled overtime, and it seemed more relevant each day, with all that continues to occur on a regular basis. Amongst these songs are some of my favorites, which I came upon during the most difficult period in my youth. That was when I became fully conscious of the world we exist in. Music helped a lot and each song channels what I feel/have felt when reflecting on modern media, corruption, oppression, western society, etc. Please listen carefully and let me know what you think. I also hope that you feel inspired to share it with others! Download tracklist 1. Sly [Underdog…

Close Mix (+Download)
Here is something new for the men to play…for the ladies and all lovers. I enjoyed selecting this playlist, which began as a follow-up to Love Maker, but took off to be its own synchronistic vibe. As you might have noticed by now, I am a great fan of slowed down music, especially when it’s stuff from the 90’s. I was sure to include some of my favorite throw-back r&b jams, touched up and remixed, as well as brand new gems which you will definitely thank me for later. All of these dope artists can be found throughout the web, including Soundcloud and Bandcamp. Support them and download this playlist…

My new mix is a feel-good list of songs that remind me of such great weather, dancing, fun, lounging, and all the other weekend vibes wrapped into one. I hope you share it with your friends. I was sure to include a couple of throwback jams, here and there. Stream it below and follow the link to download this mix! Enjoy!

Knowledge To Wisdom Mix (+Download)
This mix happened while I was making a playlist inspired by the recently deceased Maurice White, of Earth Wind And Fire. I will forever remember the wonderful vibrations felt when I listen to that band. It’s so uplifting and timeless. Naturally, the playlist lead me into a new mix that is different than the usual r&b influencees I feature here, on the Frolic. Old school soul and funky rhythm and blues is one of the styles I heard around me, growing up, and I fall more in love with it all as I age. All but one of these songs were released between the late 60’s and 70s. I hope…

FemaLe IntuiTion is sO NeXt LeveL Mix 2
My second Female Intuition Is So Next Level mix is truly special. I played this one a lot over the past weekend and each time, it listed my spirits much higher than they were. In the same mindset of last year, I am featuring art which channels certain highs and lows many women tend to experience in life. It features new/revamped versions of classic, meaningful jams by Lauryn Hill, Queen Latifah, Erykah Badu, and Jill Scott, as well as some wonderful new-generation voices I recently came upon. This year, I have come into a deeper realm of understanding of what it is to not only be a woman in this…
