Funky Soul Burner’s MIXTAPE 27: Serenity in Minimalism is a soothing and reflective playlist that explores the beauty of minimalistic music. Featuring an eclectic range of tracks from various genres, this mixtape takes listeners on a journey of introspection and inner peace.
The mixtape opens with Paredes’ “Cancao Verdes Anos” by Kronos Quartet, a beautifully simplistic string composition that sets the tone for the entire playlist. Duffy’s “Stepping Stone” follows, introducing a calming pop sound, before the bluesy track “Alligator Man” by The Nightrats takes over. The energy picks up with “La Estiba” by Paco de Lucia, John McLaughlin & Al di Meola, a lively and vibrant instrumental track that showcases the beauty of Spanish guitar.
The playlist then turns to indie and alternative tracks, featuring Ashes Divide’s “Forever Can Be,” PJ Harvey’s “You Came Through,” and Psapp’s “Upstairs.” The album’s middle section also features Charlie Hunter & Bobby Previte’s “Wave Link,” a jazz track with a cool and collected vibe, and Savath & Savalas’ “Decatur Queen,” a dreamy, atmospheric piece.
Iron & Wine’s “Wolves (Song of the Shepherd’s Dog)” offers a folk sound that’s both soothing and introspective. Tricky’s “Joseph” and Gorecki’s “Symphony of Sorrowful Songs Movement I” by David Zinman and the London Symphony Orchestra with Dawn Upshaw on soprano close out the mixtape, both tracks serving as the perfect way to cap off the reflective and introspective journey.
