Playlist of the Week: 002

Tei Shi “Important Love Songs for the Young Heart”

As part of the million Valentine’s Day playlists that came out, Tei Shi mixed “Important Love Songs for the Young Heart” for oki-ni and it’s pretty good. The playlist includes a variety of genres and love songs from the 70s to now, including classics like “Jolene” and more untraditional love songs like Spooky Black’s eerie darkwave drenched single “Without You”. She starts off soft with the saxophone laced contemporary pop of Sean Nicholas Savage and delves into a range of genres and artists before finishing with Twin Shadow’s vulnerable synthpop single “5 Seconds”. So get cozy because Tei Shi’s mix of unconventional love songs will make you have all the feels.
