Posted on January 19, 2026 by Very Warm

Every year since 2014, I’ve collected songs into a playlist as the year happens that reaches 100 songs. It serves as a digital snapshot, marking when I was obsessed with certain songs, new or old, or a song soundtracked a … Continue reading →

2021 Retrospective – 100 Discoveries, Obsessions and Moments + Listening Stats

Posted on January 4, 2022 by Very Warm

Since 2014, I’ve tried to keep track of songs that have impacted or defined my year (see all those posts tagged in the “Retrospective” section).

2010s Retrospective: 10 Years of Discoveries, Obsessions and True Moments

Posted on March 24, 2021 by Very Warm

This is a 100-song playlist of songs that made 2015 unique from other years. Songs that I listened to a ton, songs I discovered for the first time, songs that hold immense emotional weight, and other assorted sonic ephemera. My … Continue reading →
