Music Curated #29 - January 22nd, 2024
It's just another music Monday
I mix it up here and share various music with my readers, so you’ll see something different each week. You may be into some of what I share, and you may not be into other things, and that’s okay. My goal is to share the things I enjoy and I hope to introduce my audience to something they might not have otherwise heard, and I hope some of it also resonates with you.
Song: November Ultra - come into my arms
November Ultra captivated hearts with her velvety voice in November 2020, unveiling the enchanting 'Soft & Tender' followed by the poignant 'Miel'. Balancing her time between professional studios and her DIY bedroom setup, this singer-songwriter has crafted a distinct blend of comforting and cinematic bedroom pop. Her EP 'Honey Please Be Soft & Tender,' featuring the soul-stirring bonus track 'The End,' offers a glimpse into her world, and her debut album 'Bedroom Walls' out in 2022 is an exploration of her musical roots, blending folk, R&B, and the influence of her Spanish grandfather's love for 60s musicals and copla. The track “come into my arms” was first released as a single in 2022 and is tender and beautiful.
Playlist: Reading Soundtrack
I’ve started 2023 doing a lot more reading and wanted to revisit this great soundtrack to any book you might be reading these days. I read somewhere that combining reading with a soundtrack that evokes the same feelings as the type of book you’re reading is a great way to get more immersed in the book, which is something I want to explore more, but I do find that this soundtrack seems to pair with anything I’m reading.
Video: November Ultra - The Winner Takes It All (ABBA cover)
So I first discovered the velvety sound of November Ultra with this video and then went on to hear other work by her like the track I shared above. This is a beautiful rendition of an ABBA classic.
