Parsons Playlists: Tactile Illusions

Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student manager Esther (class of 2025) which explores musical textures.

Tactile Illusions

A jar of Skippy creamy peanut butter

Are you team creamy peanut butter or crunchy peanut butter? Just as food is textured, music is too! Here are some songs that I think are smoother than a fresh jar of Skippy.

D’Angelo – “Really Love”

Ari Lennox – “Backwood”

Raveena Aurora – “Salt Water”

Kaz Moon – “Furious”

Charlie Burg – “Avalanche”

Toro y Moi – “Ordinary Pleasure”

Dre’es – “Warm”

Health Club – “Way Too Long”

Lake Street Drive – “Hypotheticals”

Grover Washington – “Just the Two of Us”
