DOMINIC VALVONA’S PLAYLIST

In danger of repeating myself forever, but for newcomers to the site here’s the premise of my playlist selections. Previously only ever shared via our Facebook profile and on Spotify our regular Monolith Cocktail Social playlists will also be posted here on the blog itself.

With no themes or demarcated reasoning we pick songs from across a wide spectrum of genres, and from all eras.Selection #31, chosen as always by me, Dominic Valvona, includes Jean-Jacques Perrey‘s charming kitsch flights of fantasy into space, L.A. Jay‘s languid, floating jazzy remix of the Californian hip-hop troupe, The Pharcyde‘s Otha Fish, Penny Goodwin‘s fluttering flute ballad turn super funk acid dancefloor blast Too Soon You’re Old, South Seas dreamy sauntered pop from the Insecure Men, Kosmische traverses from the German dream team Mythos, plus spiritual, conscious and sublime jazz from Roy Hargrove & Ronnie Matthews and Brother Ah, and troubadour psych magic from Elyse Weinberg.
