vol. 005 playlist: “Verb Me”

After meditating on each Chakra for 7 days, I focused on further unblocking each energy center by creating daily routines around areas that needed improvement within. Reconnecting me with myself and healing me from the inside out. Each piece in this internal growth series is created using this technique. Each piece is a reflection of that work and a mirror for you to see beauty and potential for change within

Inspired by this artwork by Jonarra “Narr Art” Swanson (@Narr.Artwork on IG) and the new moon in pisces tonight, this week’s playlist curation reminds us to reset and reasses, conjuring watery vibes on flow and feel.
Because Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac, this new moon represents the end of a cycle. It is an ideal moment to "clean the slate," release what no longer serves you, and dream about what you wish to manifest in the coming year.

racks & Records Playlists vol. 002
Vol. 2’s playlist is inspired by local Hip Hop in honor of the “The Stop Bitin’” crew that produced an epic 10+ year weekly event at the now-closed Lofi Performance Gallery that was a bedrock to the local culture. The same crew now produces “The Cypher” held every second Thursday of the month at Vermillion. In this playlist, Isaak and Japera seek inspiration from local roots while paying homage to the broader culture.
Seattle artists included: Orbitron, Julie-C, Jack Gaffle, Suntonio Bandanaz, Vitamin D, Jake One, Maneak, Ishmael Butler, MikeJack3200, Jake One, Silver Shadow D, Travis Thompson, and Bryce Bowden.
