Why Pick a Music Playlist for Your Life

Introducing our signature 'Mello Mayusi' playlist - exclusively on Spotify!

A playlist is simply a list of songs, to be played sequentially or randomly. That’s it!

In case you've been living under a rock, that's how most of us stumble into new music these days. Playlists have become an essential feature of the modern musical landscape – Spotify alone has over 2 billion of them. And music streaming platforms like Spotify, JioSaavn and Youtube Music have put in crazy money (like billions of dollars) into AI & ML projects that now power music recommendations on these apps - all in a bid to keep music lovers hooked.

So why should you care?

This simply means you are one touch away from music that's fresh, exciting and buzzworthy - you just have to start. The recommendation engine will automatically discover music that’s been chosen for your taste, and it would slot those into new or existing playlists in a way that’s easily accessible.

Its kinda freaky, but also the one use of artificial intelligence that can truly change your life for the better. So why pick a playlist anyway?

It's the easiest way to 'upgrade' your life. All you need is a pair of speakers and/or a pair of comfortable headphones, and a smartphone or other device to play music from, and you'll be greeted with a crazy dopamine rush! Not to mention the therapeutic effects - it reduces stress, lowers anxiety, boosts motivation and alleviates pain.

“Music is moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and charm and gaiety to life and to everything.” - Plato

Besides being pleasurable, you'll feel it adding gravitas to your sadness, zing to your joy, and a meaningful & melodic oomph to your life. This is the non-quantifiable part of music's appeal - it makes us feel grateful to be alive, and sprinkles a dose of self-actualisation on our lives.

"You're the hero of your own movie. Pick the soundtrack." - Vir Das

At Mello Musings, we are all about what we call 'mellow mayusi' - a kind of meditative and reflective 'Lofi' state of mind where you are kind of zoned out. This is where a lot of creatives like poets, writers, comedians and other creators get their ideas from...

And we're excited to share we have finally launched our exclusive Mellow Mayusi Playlist! Doesn't matter whether you're a creator or not - just tune in, and zone out to the melodious acoustic notes packed in the playlist.

We promise you'd love it, particularly on rainy evenings, silent nights and early mornings where you're enjoying or seeking some solitude.
