Do you remember the old days of mixed tapes? On one of our bad days, we’d just put that tape on, and our day would take de-route in a matter of a few minutes. Well, those were the golden days, and we all miss them dearly.
But right now, we are in the days of the playlist, and it practically does the same job. Music has always been an escape for us, and we need that mental escape right now, escape to the good old days. One good song and it makes everything feel good, or at least it does calm us down.
‘Good vibes’ has always been a mood, and we are listening to our playlists to feel a little better in the lockdown days. We as a team shared our favourite songs among us, and we are obsessed with all of them. Our team gave little pieces of their hearts by sharing their songs and we thought of putting them together. You can piece our team together by listening to all the songs in our Stay In Edit playlist.
Here is our playlist for you!
