I’m fortunate enough to be able to listen to music whilst I work at my current job but this freedom comes at a price; I’ve listened to the music on my MP3 player so much that I get bored and don’t want to listen to any of it. Spotify has been a blessing in this respect, giving access to a wealth of material I don’t have in my possession though despite this, I can still be left lacking in inspiration. A friend Aron recently suggested we try out the collaborative playlist feature and ever since then we’ve been construction our own inter-office playlists, no more than an hour long and loosely held together by a theme we take turns to pick. With his blessing, I’d like to share some on the site, as I’m certainly quite pleased with the outcome of them.

One playlist in particular was Red Beret, Yellow Beret, suggested by Aron – a Jacques Cousteau inspired theme.

Red Beret, Yellow Beret
