a al verga todavía es enero
Que les puedo decir? I have fallen into the pits of sadness — maybe it’s because I have a vitamin D deficiency or some seasonal depression or maybe just my regular depression. Sepa la bola.
Some exciting news based on some feedback I got — there is now an IG dedicated to the newsletter. I’m not sure what I’m gonna be doing with it just yet. Maybe like a song a day or an album review. Idk yet but if you wanna follow it it’s @arislistening.club
Anyway, I’m trying to create a routine again. So here is the playlist for this week
Don’t forget about the spotify playlist!
Be sure to follow the Spotify playlist, which I update with each newsletter release —> Follow on spotify!! :)
There is also an entire playlist of 418 songs about 25hrs and 46mins worth of music of all the past playlists, which you can follow here
Sorry apple users, i don’t put that much effort in that streaming platform lol but y’all do have some of the individual playlists lol
about the playlist
This week's playlists consist of songs I’ve had on repeat lately.
My favorite being Maki by Oxis. I’ve been listening to them on repeat and it’s the only music where I don’t burst out crying. My second favorite is Latin Mafia, I actually saw them in SF last week with some friends. Concert was 100000/10 and their new album TODOS LOS DÍAS TODO EL DÍA is soooo good. I’ve recommended it to a bunch of folks already and they love it. Fun fact, the title of their songs are a poem of sorts.
1 Siento que merezco más
2 y como te digo que

7 pero me estoy acabando.
8 Qué vamos a hacer?
9 Yo siempre contesto
10 Ven,
11 tengo mucho ruido
Anyway, yo siempre contesto is one of my favorites from the album. The other two are siento que merezco más and vivo si me exiges. Lucy Dacus is releasing a new album. My favorite song so far of course is Limerence. The Lumineers are also releasing a new album too, their new song Same Old Songs scratches all the right parts in my brain, “I don't know what's wrong with me, I killed the mood so naturally the guests begin to make mе feel alone” (big mood recently). Their first two albums are some of my favorites to listen to back to back. I highly recommend doing that if you haven’t already.
Sooooooo much new music!!! It makes me excited to live. Sharon Van Etten with Trouble. Another favorite, Japanese Breakfast releasing a new album too. The first single is Orlando in Love. JBREKKIE just has this vibe I love. Speaking of vibes Ethel Cain with her new album Perverts. Oh yeah it’s a vibe for sure. My favorite song has been Vacillator— “if you love me keep it to yourself.”
Also bad bunny released a new album — I haven’t heard it all the way through yet. But I do like DtMF. And then some other classics I love and some current moods I have been feeling lately as well — Andrea True Connection, LCD Soundsystem, and Harry Styles. I’ll actually be going to a Harry Styles themed birthday party (I already got my ‘fit ).
