For Your Ears: Talisman FW23 Playlist

Coming in hot with a little taste of the latest and greatest in music that I’ve been jamming out to while I work in the studio this season… In the true spirit of fall, this playlist is a little moodier, and a little more introverted - perfect for a cozy night in, or a chilly, bundled-up evening out. As per usual, a mashup of rock, synth pop, shoegaze, and electronic, along with some purely vibey, instrumental tracks thrown in. Enjoy!


Parlez-vous Francais? A Playlist by Talisman Fine Jewelry

Parlez-vous Francais? I don’t, but I did make a playlist with some bangin French jams to listen to while I attempt to navigate the streets of Nice and Saint-Tropez. I figured I’d share the wealth with you here. It’s a mash up of ‘French touch’ house, mid century classics, psych rock, and a few other gems. Listen along and we can all pretend to be effortlessly cool French folks together. Profitez-vous bien!

TFJ Spring 2023 Playlist

Does music - like really really good music - give you tingles down your spine? Personally, while I may lack a natural talent with musical instruments, music is still my muse… it inspires me every day; it is my refuge. Enough so that last year, for my 40th birthday, I bought myself a DJ controller. I mean, what better time than to launch one’s nascent DJ career than at midlife, no? Daytime tea parties only though, no requests please.

My proto-DJ self made a little playlist for you. It’s full of things I’ve been jamming to all day while I work on my golden goodies… Some soul, synthy dream pop, rock, hip hop, world beats, electronica, even a little jungle (!) to smooth you out and then lift you off before touching you back down (again and again). Perfect for these early Spring days where we’re creeping out of winter, but not quite in the full heat of Summer just yet. I hope you enjoy <3
