WEDNESDAY [08.11.23] ARMCHAIR TRAVELLERS! Aural Contraband...💋
Come take a trip with me all here in one place a quick 7 song playlist!! xx
Dear Chasers! aka my favourite Armchair Travellers!..💋 (scroll down for the good stuff …!!) If this is your first time read here:
The first thing you should know about my taste in music is that its as extensive as selective memory and as obscure as fish shop gravy used to be down south in London. Maybe… hmmn, well, that’s a bit of shitty analogy haha. I don’t think would possibly know how else to explain it. Well, go on then, seen as though this is supposed to be an introduction - I might as well try… <3
If you like your music without politics or preconceptions and are seeking a break from the norm, you may have just found your new hangout. It's chill out Cap'n, But not as we know it! Crate digging adventures transformed into audio gymnastics for your in-flight entertainment ...the nearest I can get to public masturbation legally.
These Playlists are selectively crafted and curated with love by me, Chasey Delaney (aka SOPOETIC in the DJ world) and we all know that I am a music lover.
I choose playlists which I believe are made for lovers, not just of music but real soul searchers, dreamers and believers! every playlist will be different .
Please remember that not only will select different songs or a choose a change of genre. I will bring forth anything and everything, colouring outside the lines ;-)
We can relax, unwind or get excited, twisted, mangled-spangled, cry, drown out our sorrows, sing for our supper and all the while I will be aiming to serve a stiff 2 fingers to the nasty genre police ;-) with you riding shotgun by my side!
I always tend to fuck mix things up, emotions, feelings, vibes and all kinds - with music it pays off and i always get it right! All these playlists are designed for just you and me - us. There are NO RULES so expect the unexpected and join me on this ride tonight.
I always include eclectic selections in every single issue of The Daily Chase’s - Armchair Travellers *new playlists* feature.
All the fun of the fair delivered directly in your inbox every WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY and SUNDAY from this day forward.
So head down to the quality street bit for a bit of the old Aural Contraband and car boot soul from the heart, bric a brac basslines custom-crafted with you in mind all support appreciated ;-)
If you feeling like inviting anyone else around feel free to share and I’ll put their name on the list at the door! buckle down with a beverage or vice of your own choice… leave all expectations at the door! <3 xxxx
Wednesday 8 November 2023 Playlist
1. Bob Dylan - To Fall In Love With You
I came across this one for the first time today. The audio quality is a bit poor but the sentiment is the same. Sad, soulful and haunting. Beautiful. My favourite Dylan of all time is an outtake of Series of Dreams, even the main version with all the backing sounds and everything the lyrics in it are incredibly relatable. It would have been too me for me to have chosen that song though. I love this song too. It’s a close runner up, if not exceeding my love of Lily, Rosemary & The Jack of Hearts (another firm repeater on my playlists!). I vibe with all the popular tracks too but something in me seems to seek out the more obscure. I’m not even sure if tonight’s song is popular or less heard of but its a new one for me and it sets the tone for this evening.
2. Gary Moore - I Love You More Than You’ll Ever Know
Those guitar rifts………… goosebumps !! Bluesy bliss. Drift off into the pleasure / pain threshold with this one. It’s a long nearly ten minute track so invest in it. Takes some level of commitment to just relax into it. Especially, for fidgety little me!
3. Kikiwest - I’m Not In Love
This is a rare find of my collection. I tried to search it on Instagram to set as my profile song but nothing for this particular cover of 10CC’s I’m Not In Love. I like Kikiwest (the band’s) song Creeper. I’m actually planning on making a punk type, weird eclectic mix tonight featuring some of their stuff. It’s a great cover. The music too I AM IN LOVE with it <3
4. Joan Baez - Love Minus Zero No Limit
I love the lyrics - my favourite KILLER LINE “the bridge at midnight trembles” to name just the one. I love the lyrics…. check them out. Listen closely or Google.
5. The Walker Brothers - Land of 1000 Dances (live)
Now, normally when I listen to music or make mixes, playlists whatever, I can’t stand 'LIVE’ versions… if fucking annoys me. However, there are some exceptions, like when I might be doing a soundscape or an UNPLUGGED mix and in THIS instance… I kind of prefer the audio clarity in this. It’s live, its raw…. it’s a hit and miss 1966 recording. Love it or hate it pallet cleanser. It’s a wee quickie. Allow it.
6. Samsara. (NYC) - Everything Is Alright
THIS ONE IS LOUD…… might need to adjust the volume a bit. Some college kids from Queens / Long Island. I’ve never heard of this band before. I found it in an old file whilst digitally crate digging for tunes to use in my upcoming mix. Like it..?
7. Pete Seeger - Clementine
Bit of fun…. like a cheeky tongue-in-cheek-ditty… CAUTION: you wont be able to get it out of your head for the rest of the day…. hahahahah! Thank me later! <3 xxx
