Ecstatic Voice
Curated the first-ever official playlist for enthusiasm-loving communication studio and voice lab
Challenge
Cate Scott Campbell, Founder & Chief Expression Officer of Ecstatic Voice, asked me to curate the first-ever playlist for her multimedia newsletter, The Ecstatic Review. March’s editorial theme was enthusiasm—which meant we needed an uplifting song selection that encouraged listeners to march forth to their own beat.
Approach & Solution
Cate offered more curation context by sharing an eclectic mix of references from Nina Simone’s “Here Comes the Sun” rendition to Maren Morris and Jon Batiste. In her words, we were looking to make something that felt like the first blooms of spring after a long winter, and that sparked an extra spring in the step. From there, I yes-anded with a roster of songs including a hyperbolic upper from one-to-watch, Debbi Dawson, a percussive electro bop that waxes lyrical about persistence, some classics, and some fresh takes on classics.
Thanks to my ears being firmly fixed on the pulse of new music—and the ability to synthesize a blend of genres and decades—we created a vibrant, motivating flow for every soul who hits “play.”
