TiDUS Tour 2024 (NY & UK Shows)
Tidus is no stranger to this site. In fact, he has been one of my most frequently shared artists, as he’s one of my favorites to listen to. He is also a dear friend for a decade now. I had the honor of seeing him play his first live show in Los Angeles back in 2022. While he has played his earliest instrumentals for a Los Angeles crowd back in the Low End Theory days, it was his first official show as a performer. I had been waiting to catch this man live since I met him, so it was a treat to be able to finally take in the…

𝙉𝙀𝙒 𝙉𝙊𝙎𝙏𝘼𝙇𝙂𝙄𝘼: 𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘐𝘵 𝘍𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘴 𝘓𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝟫𝟢𝘴 𝘙&𝘉 is a playlist I began this week, after noticing elements of sounds that were popularized during the 90s within the latest upcoming r&b music. As the ultimate 90s kid and r&b junkie that I am, I LOVE it when it’s done right. I will be updating this list weekly as I discover more and recall some of my recent favorites.

SINKING IN Playlist
SINKING IN Playlist is all about allowing oneself to relax. During our time quarantining, there have been many threats to our mental, emotional, and physical health. I notice that many people are experiencing anxiety through the roof. There have been several moments when I found myself almost being influenced to fall into a fearful mindstate, but I refuse to be hopeless and to allow circumstances that are out of my power to lower my vibration. Now is the time to raise ourselves into higher states by reconnecting with our true nondistracted selves. Be alone. Go within. That is the basis of this beautiful mix, featuring different types of music that…

LOW-KEY R&B GEMS (2000-2010 Edition) Playlist
LOW-KEY R&B GEMS Playlist was actually supposed to be a megamix that I was going drop last year, but technical issues derailed my plans for that. There are two decades worth of R&B/Urban Pop music that I always felt to be heavily slept on by the masses, regardless of a few of these artists actually being popular at the time. Other artists that I feature on the playlist are not heard from at all today, while some never were. That is the basis of this curation. Since I turned 10, I loved going to the music store or to Target to buy CDs and listen to music from artists that…

SOUL TIES Playlist
SOUL TIES playlist was inspired while I was listening to several songs that have a beautifully nostalgic 80s-electronic-r&b vibe to them but were actually released between now and the early 2000s. This is another playlist that I am taking my time with building. There are some songs that aren’t available to stream which I will eventually add to a mix version of this playlist later this year. I hope everyone that comes across it enjoys and that it takes them to a dreamy place like it does for me. Yes, that is Prince and his soulmate Denise “Vanity” Matthews on the cover. R.I.P. to them both. Follow me on Apple…

HEAVY Playlist
HEAVY playlist is curated from some emotional tracks that I love, from all over the music spectrum, but definitely including soulful aspects. This curation is still in its early stages. I want to build this one up slowly, as I am inspired and reminded of the best rare heartbreak to healing songs. “Feel free to feel. Feel free to heal.” -@StellarFaerie Follow me on Apple Music to keep up with my latest playlists, which are updated weekly. I will be following back anyone who also curates their own. You can also keep up via Spotify. Be sure to @ me on my socials to let me know what you think!…

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…

JST DAVID – Snacks LP Feat. Jay Kale
Earlier this week, the Lousiana-bred artist JST David released his debut solo album entitled Snacks. I previously featured JST David with his soulful rock band Honeyvibe. Their infectious jam Summersong was a theme that played in my head all last summer. It seems that JST David’s voice gets even better and more distinct on his new songs. Snacks is a unique storytelling project that was created with producer Jay Kale, in a few short weeks. There are powerful and necessary messages which come across throughout its length. I believe that many of us can easily connect to the vulnerability presented. My current favorites are In Need Of Your Helping Hands…

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…

Jean Créme – Underwater EP
Jean Créme (formerly Alem Bey / Alem Banks) recently dropped a Drum & Bass driven instrumental EP that I immediately fell in love with—start to finish. I decided to have my first listen to UNDERWATER while preparing to hit the city streets for the night, and I’ve been getting ready to it ever since. I suspect that it was designed to energize, as each track is complete with a hypnotic loop and beautifully layered sounds that beckon one to move non-stop. Even the slightly more laid back track Chopped Screws is a major hip-rocker. I would love to hear this in a bar or the clubs. Check out the project…
