Parsons Playlists: Walks Around The Lake

Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student assistant Isaac (class of 2025) and features songs he listened to on walks around Westhampton Lake.

Walks Around The Lake

Like most, my first semester of college was a lot rougher than I imagined. I was confused, lonely, stressed, and honestly, I just missed my mom’s cooking. I would take walks around the lake to help ease my mind. Cold or hot, wet or dry, these walks were a necessary part of my routine, and I allowed the music I heard take me where they pleased. A few more semesters in, I’m loving college in a way that shocks me considering how miserable it was at times in the past, but I still take these walks occasionally. Here are some of the songs I listened to on these walks:

Westhampton Lake - University of Richmond

Frank Ocean – “White Ferrari”

Kanye West – “Lowlights”

Billie Eilish – “listen before i go”

Frank Ocean – “Moon River”

James Blake – “Are You Even Real?”

92914 – “Okinawa”

Daniel Caesar – “Japanese Denim

The Killers – “Read My Mind”

G-DRAGON – “Untitled, 2014”

Naron says that the theme of this playlist is “Instrumental Music with clean rhythm(some singing, but singing is not the major part)” and that it is “a collection of instrumental music that speaks about different little drops of emotions in life.”
