Hi there :) I’m Vrisha, and I’m somewhat of an avid music listener, to put it lightly. My creds? Well,,,, I got over 58 thousand minutes of music listening on my Spotify, and listened to over 700 artists this year alone. Maybe that counts for something. Or not. I don’t know. But I do know that I am very passionate about music, open to anything, and want to share some of my faves with you all in the hopes that you find something new or can discuss your opinion on something familiar.
Before I begin, if you wanna, check out my Mid-Year Music Finds from earlier this year!
Anyway, here’s a list of 50 more songs from the past 6 months (in no particular order) that I’ve been obsessed with. Linked with each is a YouTube video for your listening pleasures (typically a visualizer/lyric video unless it has a cool music video, lol). For good measure, the photos used are also the album covers to some of my favorite releases this year.
