Songs to design by

Some people visit an art gallery when they need inspiration, some read a book and some go travelling. Ever since I first starting doodling design ideas in my sketchbooks, I’ve been making playlists with “songs to design by” – songs that inspire me, help me keep focused and get my creative juices flowing. Some times it’s the lyrics, other times the beat, a certain composition or a catchy chorus or hook. So, for this #musicmonday I thought I’d post some of these songs.
- Marsheaux – Hanging On (YouTube)
- Covenant – We want revolution (YouTube)
- Temposhark – Crime (YouTube)
- The Human League – All I ever wanted (YouTube)
- Takako Minekawa – Phonobaloon Song (YouTube)
- Autechre – Gantz Graf (YouTube)
- Hype – Living on video (Spotify)
- Celluloide – Synchronise (Spotify)
- Kurd Maverick – Blue Monday (Vandalism Remix) (YouTube)
- Auto-Auto x Parralox – Don’t talk about love, Mr Schneider (the oxy mashup) (YouTube)
For those not familiar with the #musicmonday concept, this is how it works. Every monday twittering music fans post their song of the day. The tweet has a link to the song and the hash tag #musicmonday.
