This Month’s Music – August

Hello darlings! It sure has been a while since I’ve posted up a new blog piece for music, and I feel a bit bold not having done so sooner. The last handful of weeks have been so very busy at work and even my fashion blog Killer Fashion has been that bit more quiet. I’ve decided to try stay more active, at least on the music side of things, I’ll be sure to post a new monthly series of the albums & top tracks I’m currently listening to and playing on repeat. Music means a lot to me, and I listen to music about 80% of my day, every day. Be it at the office, during the commute, when I’m cooking, blogging or even having a shower. I suppose you could say I’m addicted to having it on in the background, it’s my little thing, and one of the few (or many) things, that make me, me.

It seems appropriate to post the piece towards the end of the month, since I’ll have been listening to certain albums, new artists or rediscovered tracks that I’d forgotten about, and put them all here, without a full album review, for you to also be inspired by. As you know, Cookie FM is my little side blog that is just for fun but that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t neglect it. Considering I eat every day and tend to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat my food (@NirinaXX) – it really is only fair to put up a piece about my monthly music too.

I hope you find new music to add to your playlists!
