You Only Live Once

The Strokes

First Impressions Of Earth album cover art

This song transports me back to some very specific moments in my life, when my friends and I would watch cover bands playing indie songs in questionable venues while drinking equally questionable wine. Good memories, for sure.

Kalouv has a special place in my heart. They're a post-rock band from my hometown, Recife. I first met them when I had just moved back there, and I friend took me to see them without giving me any context of what we were about to watch. I definitely recommend checking out their work.

Space Oddity

David Bowie

There is so much I enjoy about this song that it is hard to pick something to talk about. I'll go today with its use of stereo channels throughout the whole track, which is very satisfying, specially when listening with headphones.

At the River

Groove Armada

When I got recommended this song for the first time in 2014, I immediately got transported to over 10 years in the past, to a time when I was as a kid in a car and this song played in the radio. I remember wanting to find it again, but I couldn't back then. It was a good reminder of how music transcends time and space.

I'd Rather Dance With You

Kings of Convenience

I was organising a weekend-long hackathon back in 2015. At around 2 AM, I went for a nap and accidentally left this album playing on repeat while I slept. These songs were imprinted in my brain for weeks after that.

Such Great Heights

The Postal Service

I was a kid wandering on the Internet when I opened a website that had this song as its background music (that was a thing back then). I have absolutely no recollection of what the website was about, but the song stuck in my head. That riff is so satisfying!
