Themusicstreaming institutionSpotifyhas proven to bea frequently polarizing force in popular culture. While thereis certainly no lack ofengaging playlists, songs, and albums to focus on and highlight for those who enjoy the service, the company has also managed to ruffle feathers through its controversial practices, causingsome artists to pull away from Spotify entirely.
Despite this,with so many billion-stream-eclipsing worksthat help drive the site’s traffic, Spotify’s users continue to populate the resource, especially with popular playlists. In fact, there doesn’t appear to bea mood or moment that Spotify playlists can’t seem to adequately address, including one of the most mighty weekday beasts, the heavyweight typically known as the Wednesday hump day.
Wake Up Wednesday With A Gently-Tinged And Jazzy Focus
There are few better ways to ease into the day than by rising slowly withJazz in the Backgroundplaying softly. Whether you work (or study) before dawn orare in the car commuting as the sweet-sipped sun starts catching the dewy lawns, this playlist will guide you gently through the day’s start, to the test or time clock.
Jazz in the Backgroundis all about focus without the frantic, stillness away from the presence of stress. As all too many of us know, it’s easy to start a day (especially related to adulting) halfway to worrying. This playlist keeps the low end (of the music and the mental) away from wild waves, whether through navigating working or schooling.
Start Engaging Your Day With A Fully Stocked, Empty Head
WhileJazz in the Backgroundwas an unopened flower, softly coaxed into life by the magic of nature’s melody,No Thoughts, Head Emptyis Wednesdayas you sit down at your work computer or grab your first tasks of the day. Built on the back of video game empire Nintendo’s original soundtrack selections, this is how a walk becomes trotting.
Whether originating with the “Mii Channel Theme,” ending with “Wii Sports Tutorial,” or the plinking, winsome adventuring head of “Flower Fields,“No Thoughts, Head Emptymixes quaint into quirky (the way Nintendo has always done so well). This is to start your foot to tapping, as the day gets tapping along with it.
