It&#8217;s Makenna here. I&#8217;m hoping to share with you a little bit about the creation of this playlist. Throughout this week, I was reminded that I am being a little too hard on myself. Hearing from peers and trusted members of our campus on the zoom version of But Some of Us are Brave and Tan Lines (a cross over of the two) was refreshing. It made me feel connected and I realized I am not the only one being too hard on themselves right now. Before this quarantine, I could not catch a breath. So now I feel unproductive and fall into a slump when I feel like I am resting too much. A series of conversations I had this week made me introspective, asking myself, \u201cwhy do I expect so much of myself, but also treat myself unkindly when I don\u2019t live up to those impossible standards?\u201d Standards made especially impossible in this time. This self reflection was a lot to grapple with, so I went on a long walk. I shed a few tears. I began to create a playlist with songs that felt healing. I listened to the playlist and gave myself some grace. I went home and I decided that part of the self care would be to keep that playlist to myself and create a playlist that makes me feel good to share<\/em> with everyone. <em>I realized I need equal parts feel good music and songs that inspire personal reflection and healing. So here I give to you, the playlist of triumph, and dancing, the playlist that grew after a few tears. I hope you can dance to it too! <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/3GzPS8Chm19qUKghO3dAEI?si=Qh94DUfuRniYIi6KPgjPsA\">Isolation Station Playlist #3<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">Tune in this week to listen to artists such as <strong>Shatta Wale<\/strong>, <strong>Willow Smith<\/strong> and <strong>The Internet<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_32637\"  width=\"800\" height=\"450\"  data-origwidth=\"800\" data-origheight=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-xyDg9Tco5s?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen;

A quarantine DJ with a deep love for music. I enjoy a variety of genres and I can be found listening both to what\u2019s \u201cnew\u201d and what\u2019s been around for some time. Music is my go to mode of art that gets me through anything. During times of isolation, for many of us, music has the ability to make us feel a little closer to each other. Each issue of The Public I will share a playlist in hopes to provide a space for us to come together through music. Quarantine doesn\u2019t have to mean the absence of laughter and joy, so I\u2019ve added a few of my favorite songs that happen to have titles that provide a little laugh, such as \u201cTired of Being Alone\u201d by Al Green. I hope you find something in here that you love or even simply something new. Perhaps upon your first listen you find that nothing in this playlist speaks to you. Either way, keep coming back, keep listening, because someone else is listening too and it&#8217;s a small way to be together. There will be a new playlist within every issue with a new variety of artists and sounds to bring you out of quarantine blues.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/edblogs.pugetsound.edu\/the-public\/files\/2020\/04\/Isolation-Station-logo.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-492\" width=\"246\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"https:\/\/edblogs.pugetsound.edu\/the-public\/files\/2020\/04\/Isolation-Station-logo.png 429w, https:\/\/edblogs.pugetsound.edu\/the-public\/files\/2020\/04\/Isolation-Station-logo-291x300.png 291w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 246px) 100vw, 246px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/7FTHxXCMRJm5eXIo8CsXD4?si=SBSlGEnTR3iS2pF7e2kygQ\">Isolation Station Playlist #1<\/a><\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/7FTHxXCMRJm5eXIo8CsXD4?si=SBSlGEnTR3iS2pF7e2kygQ\"> <\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week listen to artists such as: Solange, Aretha Franklin, Bootsy Collins, Childish Gambino and more.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_51381\"  width=\"800\" height=\"450\"  data-origwidth=\"800\" data-origheight=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dvfZ95ueOcQ?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption> <br>This week&#8217;s Isolation Station Playlist features: Selena&#8217;s <em>Amor Prohibido<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_18986\"  width=\"800\" height=\"450\"  data-origwidth=\"800\" data-origheight=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fvX2KX9PBFA?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption><br>This week&#8217;s Isolation Station Playlist features: Janet Jackson&#8217;s <em>I Get Lonely<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Makenna Hess-Fletcher As we reach the end of the Covid-19 semester, I&#8217;m wishing you wellness and positive thoughts.
