Zine: A Playlist For...

The prompt for my International Zine Month 2020: Zine A Day project for Day 11 was Playlists. For me, that quite simply meant making a bunch of playlists for different occasions!

Music really has been the glue that has bonded my life together, it is there to pick up my pieces when I feel broken. My musical taste has evolved a lot. My Chemical Romance and The Dresden Dolls are the two bands that shaped my music tastes, and in fact, my life the most. I am now a digital listener, as it seems to be the easiest way to collect all the songs I love in one place... but I do still have an ache for the CD and the record, I like the physical things sometimes. That is why I wanted to make a hand-written zine full of playlists with some of my favourite music, and I decided to theme each playlist to a specific activity or setting.

My 6 playlists are devoted to Making Art, Feeling Blue, Walking in the Woods, Having Sex, Going on a Roadtrip, and Happiness.

This mini-zine is printed in traditional greyscale on a 100gsm paperstock to form a mini 8-page folded booklet.
