Playlist: The Pier

May 10, 2019

Today, we feel like having a bit of a float.

Hovering just above the water is kind of what a pier is all about if you’re willing to look at it with the same rose-colored spectacles we do. While piers are intended for docking boats, they are now just as often used for fishing, playing arcade games, feeding some fish or birds, and having a nice windy walk above the water. There is charm in their symmetry and their steadfast defiance of the constant movement of the water beneath them. We’ve made a playlist to give you that buoyant, windswept feeling of standing on a pier. Swaying like the old, algae-covered, wooden supports, these smooth tunes will take you down the long walk where the sky meets the water. Gaze at the horizon and dip your ears in below.
