Description

Imagine for a moment that you're on your own, but in a crowd. Maybe you're seated on a bus alongside others who are also making the journey from work to home. Perhaps you're walking down a busy street, and you find an unexpected moment of tranquility as you bend down to tie the laces of a well-worn shoe. Then again, you could be one in an audience of hundreds, eagerly waiting for your favorite DJ to take the stage. Now, imagine yourself pulling a pair of headphones from the pocket of your coat and sliding them into place. Press play. What song do you hear?
There's something surreal about the experience of being alone in a crowd. Some of us find a sense of calm in the anonymity. Others struggle with the sudden self-awareness that comes from being but one small scene in life's elaborate tapestry.
In the newest episode of our podcast, Themes and Variation, the panelists discuss songs that capture exactly these sorts of sensations. This theme (which may very well be one of our favorites) was selected by our guest for the episode, Fadi Tabbal (sound artist, producer, engineer), who joined Carter and Mahea to talk about "Songs to Listen to When You're Alone in a Crowd."
