Adeline Hotel – Ordinary Things : Playlist

Earlier this year, Adeline Hotel released an album called Solid Love, a really tender, sophisticated piece of art with Brigid Mae Powers adding her heavenly harmonies. The instrumentalism is intricate but understated, resulting in a record of subdued, elegant beauty. As the air becomes crisper, it’s become a go-to. Dan Knishkowy, singer and song-writer for the band made us this lovely mix. Please dig in, and be sure to check out Solid Love.

There’s this Jessica Pratt lyric I’ve been thinking about a lot recently, “reflections of your memory in the window”. It was a weird thing releasing music during COVID, obviously – I’m realizing how much I define periods of life around music, the writing cycle, the recording cycle, the release cycle, and this strange perpetual present we’re in means that these things sort of blur together. This mix captures that feeling a little bit, the ways Solid Love was a quietly joyous celebration of community, and then the subsequent retreat and solitude, inside looking out at the world through foggy windows. Everything on here is from my Bandcamp collection because well, Bandcamp is the best. ” -Dan Knishkowy
