ISSUE #150
One afternoon three years ago, I was feeling that classic early-twenties feeling like I had never and would never do anything and everyone would hate me for it. I sat down and made a newsletter on a whim. Now, 150 issues later, Earwyrms has become my longest relationship—professional or otherwise—and I finally have the wherewithal to give it the website it deserves.
You can visit Earwyrms.com right now to read any of our back issues. Want to read the first issue? Sure thing (though I don't recommend it) . Want to listen to a playlist for a flying boat? Issue #20, baby. Remember the Oral History of the Monster Mash? My favorite.
You can also search for playlists by category now. For example, if you wanted to put on songs for a BBQ sunset or a patio evening, just pull one from our Golden Hour category. Got a yearning you can't get rid of? Try So Hot You're Hurting My Feelings. Need something to calm you down after a stressful day at work? Sleep Well Beast has you covered.
Needless to say, this is a first draft version; there are many improvements to come. Until then, here are some other pages you can visit:
Our all-piano playlist.
Elegy to a dying rover.
Dark Academia: A Genre.
Thank you for being such a good subscriber even before I had a website. Things are better now.
Places where the land ends are pure—you can hear water like that a mile away. Oceans are perfect, even radical, in their isolation. You could swim out into the sea as far as you like, if what you wanted was to drown, yet this desire to be free is forever compelling.
