Coalition Music on Spotify
November Spotify Playlist Takeover with Devi!
Movies and TV shows have always been my source to discover new music. My music collection as a teen included soundtracks to John Hughes' classics as well as gems I found through shows like Square Pegs and Twin Peaks. Sources like these fed me a variety of music that the gatekeepers like my local radio station or MuchMusic never played. In this age of Netflix, HBO, and Amazon, music fans like myself are constantly finding new tunes to obsess over. The playlist attached is a mixture of new music I've found as well as some rediscovered classic throwbacks from shows that are set in the past. You'll also see that I really never grew up in my TV tastes as a teen. I'm still a big fan of soaps, superheroes, and juvenile humour 🤓
P.s. there are a few shows below that aren't on Netflix but “Netflix November” had a cooler ring than “Songs I’m Digging Right Now”. And seriously what else do you do when it’s -1 outside in November!!
