Finding The Joy in Walking To Class

By Malya Fass

Spotify users have seen the “daylist” – but who knows if the latest concoction of “indie morning upbeat jams mix” will speak to you on a given Tuesday? Here’s a playlist to add a little oomph to your walk across campus, and some of the highlights listed below. 

Campus - Vampire Weekend 

How could this song not be included on a walking-to-class playlist? Vampire Weekend encapsulates the angst of having a campus crush and lets us feel a little dreamy about the college experience.

Home Soon - Dope Lemon 

Dope Lemon samples “Stories??” by the Chakachas on this groovy song off of his 2017 album, “Hounds Tooth.” If I ever get stopped for one of those “what are you listening to” videos I hope I’m listening to this.

 

Come on Home - Lijadu Sisters

I’m not sure I can listen to “Come on Home” without a smile on my face. As the seasonal depression rolls our way, I’m sure this song could supplement a few vitamin D pills.

 

Jettin’ - Digable Planets 

Ladybug Mecca’s first verse plays a beautiful game of ping-pong through your earbuds. Digable Planets’ jazzy hip-hop is here to lift your spirits after that long lecture.
