‘My Favorite Color’ Is Here to Calm You

There is something about precipitation that makes certain types of music feel more meaningful. Ambient rock, that mp3 of the song your high school crush sort of wrote about you, sparse Icelandic folk songs whose lyrics are indiscernible — all of these are aided by the pitter patter of snow on your windowpane.

I wouldn’t quite put this mashup on a You Are Listening To level, but it is definitely of the “play on repeat in a minimized tab to soothe you while you work on something else” persuasion.
