Tune Favourites



Hey guys. Just a quick correction from my previous post, its not mist, its a haze. Thanks to my ever loving brother for pointing it out. If there is something wrong with my post for me to check out, really feel free to comment on it! So as I said, lately its been a very laidback weather here and these are the songs that carried me through it. I might not be able to list all but just click here and you can find the rest on my SoundCloud. It's been awhile since the last Tune Favourite and that means I've been listening a ton.


1. "Here" by Alessia Cara (Lucian Remix)
This has been basically the soundtrack for my August and even now I can't but be so floored by this singer's voice. I discovered her from a youtuber I follow and never regretted the decision to subscribe to her Vevo channel. While the original is the stuff, I love how it was remix here and every decision made to create it is so spot on. Do check out her other singles like "I'm Yours" and "Seventeen" . She also does her own video recording of her songs and she does some reallly goood impressions. She an upcoming artist that is most definitely one to watch.

2. "I Will Be There" by Odessa
Not exactly a new song but I heard somewhere on TV and it really clicked with me. It's the kind of song you play when you want to comfort someone. Show them their not alone in feeling down and that for them you, you're willing to be there for them to lean on. The tune and the harmony is so good and it really brings me back to my childhood for some reason. Makes you kinda melancholy which isn't necessarily a bad feeling. It is actually pretty calming.


3. "Little Bit More" by Bo Saris (Mousse T's Funk Remix - The Relfex Revision)
A lot of funk remixes you may find have the coolest beats. Sure not a lot of singing but the modernize version of retro is definitely my preferred hype song. This one is no doubt one of those. Its light but catchy.

4. "Beautiful Now" by Zedd ft. Jon Bellion
Love songs like these. It sort of reminds me off "On Our Way" by The Royal Concept with the sound of people singing together along the song. I love love LOVE the video. The cinematics and the glimpses of stories depicted really brought the song to a new meaning. One of my recent on-repeats.


5. "Ghost" by Halsey
I actually heard the remix of the song and never quite like it enough till I stumble upon the original and fell in love. Maybe its the approaching October, I'm not sure but I've been really listening to a bit of songs with a haunting element to it. Even if it wasn't represented as anything supernatural or scary. There is something beautiful about the lyrics, the tune and the way they all come beautifully. This song also has a bit of pop to it despite its name and its a love song so try giving it a chance. Ironically though the previous post also had a song titled "Ghost". Hmm.

6. "Girls Your Age" by Transviolet
Another "ghostly" tuned one however I love the unique melodious voice here and the lyrics are just spot on good.Once you get into it, it'll stick around for awhile. It's depicts the kind of girl version of playboys because no matter the gender, everyone has broke some hearts at one point or another.


7. "Murder On The Dancefloor" by Cooperated Souls
Now things are starting the get into a horror genre. Just kidding. This song couldn't be any further from that. Quite similar to song no. 3, its a funk dance song. There's just something about it that reminds me of the comedic side of horror while being super catchy and finger snapping; Michael Jackson's "Thriller" perhaps? If you're into some pop and disco, this is very much for you. Lift my mood up almost instantaneously.


8. "Tea Time" by Ouranos
Lastly is this pop sort of dance EDM sort of R&B sort of I'm not too sure exactly what genre but its really good. Jess Glynne comes to mind here when I listen to it. It start out with the literal sound of tea being poured which will confuse people who missed its name but after that its all good vibes. You kind feel like how its cover looks like. Weird but you're just going to have to listen to really find out.

That concludes this post. Thanks for reading and stopping by. Please comment if you got any recommendations for me to listen and look forward to the next one!

Updates + Big Announcement

I thought I start off how dormant this blog has been with a good ol' update post. Cause there's nothing like going back in the blogger grind than just telling y'all what's been up since the last one. It's been a year since that post so ya girl has went through a whole LOT. I am now finally in my first year of degree, I got into the high committee for my DJ Club, I've been more creative with editing photos (check it out on the gram @twistlist ) and moved to a better apartment where I can finally COOK along with dope housemates. Through all the stress and never ending work I got from school, life honestly has been really good to me and I'm just grateful to be where I am. Won't lie though; I had my dips this past year with adulting, getting things together and balancing it all. Self deprecation is a habit I am trying to curb and not do as often since its sort of my coping mechanism to stress. We are not about that this year, not anymore. I'...

Haul+Review: Beauty Edition III

BIORE UV AQUA RICH SUNSCREEN I always enter the sunscreen section of drugstore with some concerns. Its just tough when you're oily in one area and not really in others while trying to get a sunscreen that accommodates those two in one face. While being such a integral part of skincare, it is also sometimes the least thoroughly thought of product unless you were off on some tropical getaway. You might think that SPF found in your bb cream to be a great add on but it doesn't mean you can depend exclusively to it as your sun protection even if you use it daily. It just won't stand up to a regular sunscreen. However Biore seem to have a range of sunscreens to cater to what you're looking for so I bought this one. I don't have the original packaging but I do remember that it promises a semi matte finish and no lingering white cast. Which I'm happy to report that it isn't causing me breakouts or leaving me looking like a ghost. It also seem to be well aft...

The Bean Factory

At home, I am a study chameleon. I not only rarely use a table and chair, I can sit on floors with books on sofa or beds or just using beds for hours. Basically, you won't find me on a table and chair unless I go out to study. For a change of environment with the hopes of getting more done than by myself, I go out mostly with a friend to find just how many cafes aside from Starbucks and Coffee Bean have a working environment that allows us enjoy a good drink beside our notes and math frustrations. So far my reoccurring haunt as of late is The Bean Factory. Shoutout to Chan Yng for introducing this cool place to me. Decked out in a rustic with a dab of modern minimalism decor, this cool cafe is located on the first floor at a corner on one of the blocks at Lido Plaza. The seating area is basically sort of split in to two where one area is black comfy leather chairs and brown brick walls that for some reason makes you feel at home. The other area are some high rise table and cha...
