Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student assistant Mia (class of 2026) and features some songs that evoke the coming fall temperatures.
65° and Sunny
My theme for this playlist was inspired by the upcoming weather. Fall is my favorite season and these songs remind me of when it is 65° and sunny outside 🙂
I have finally reached my fourth annual Pantone playlist, just in time for my last semester as a student employee at the Parsons Music Library. 2025’s color of the year is Mocha Mousse—a warm, inviting hue that captures our desire to nurture ourselves and others. Pantone describes Mocha Mousse as a velvety, gentle mocha tone that enriches mind, body, and soul with its comforting sophistication. Pantone collaborated with Spoonflower, Pura, and Libratone to celebrate this trend. Spoonflower introduced a collection of fabrics in Mocha Mousse, Pura created a line of artisanal candles based on mocha mousse, and Libratone launched earbuds in mocha mousse. Here are 18 songs I believe are a mix of mellow and cozy warmth.

Welcome back to Parsons Playlists! Today’s playlist is curated by Music Library student assistant Griffin (class of 2027). It features a mix of new and older songs.
Back to the Future
Recently, I’ve been listening to mostly old music as well as whatever new releases were coming out, so I thought, why not combine the time differences into one playlist? Listening to them all, it’s interesting to listen to the common themes from each period and how the sound has evolved into what we enjoy today. Listening from old to new, new to old, or shuffling the list gives light to new experiences as well.

Interlude
On days a little more hectic, a moment to pause and breathe can make all the difference. Here’s a playlist of songs that feel like a gentle pat on the back for me.
