Glimpse: Recent Episodes
Scott Linnertz
Like a modern-day mixtape, Glimpse is a project that will allow me to share with you how I hear life and the world.
Compilations reflecting what a certain bottle of wine would sound like; music for a mood, feeling, season - A soundtrack for life through my ears.
No matter which month autumn comes (may in sydney, october in the states), the music that starts to creep up in play count on my iTunes remains the same. I've thrown in a few new tunes that will undoubtedly join them. Music for settling in and curling up. Jumpers, fireplaces, extra blankets, cider and wine.

It's a very, VERY odd thing to have always known the Holiday season to be cold, chilly, usually wet and on occasion snowy, and now to have it be the complete opposite - going to the beach, summer kicking into full gear - very odd indeed. But, a very large portion of the world has known nothing but this kind of climate, Christmas has always been a summer holiday.
I find myself very nostalgic in this new environment, even a little melancholy. This compilation reflects those feelings of my first Holidays away from home, and a longing to be back in front of the fire and the tree, surrounded by family.
With Christmas staples, jazzy remixes of old favorites and some modern tunes, here is a glimpse into the Holidays through my ears.
