Chopped Electronic Nostalgia
A list of Vaporwave music that reminds me of a dying walkman. It slows the audiences down and at the same time elevates them. Can be really effective in triggering thoughts.
Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student assistant Eli (class of 2024) and features music by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893).

Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today we feature a collection of songs with a bit of new perspective on classical singing curated by student assistant Wonyoung (class of 2024).
Classical Singing Crossover
When we think of “Classical Singing” and “Opera”, it may be hard to approach because it may seem dry and far from modern day music. However, it does not always have to be so.

Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student assistant Nikoloz (class of 2026) and features phonk, a subgenre of hip hop and trap music which is popular in Russia.
Phonk
Phonk songs, especially Drift phonk, usually use distorted/sampled sounds that most of us are familiar with. Regardless, these phonk songs sound quite different from those melodies you might know and love, to the point where you wouldn’t guess in a thousand years that music pieces that you listen to on a regular basis are used for their creation.
This phonk comes from Russia, however more recent works that become popular are in English (That is, of course, if they have any lyrics at all.)

Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student assistant Marissa (class of 2025) songs celebrating the transition from summer to fall.
The Turn of the Seasons
