Capsule Records’ must-listens for the change in season

Now that the weather is changing, what better way to seek comfort than listening to some reflective and calming music? This November, we’re presenting Capsule Records’ ones to listen to as the nights draw in and the rain pounds down. Grab a drink and a blanket, curl up on the sofa and enjoy.

Bob Dylan – Blonde on Blonde

Blonde on Blonde is Dylan’s seminal album that excellently captures the essence and brilliance of his songwriting. It is a must for autumn; it transports you to New York on sunny-but-cold autumnal days when the leaves are falling.

Reflections Of A Golden Dream – Lonnie Liston Smith

Embrace the shorter days by listening to more reflective, mediative music. Lonnie Liston Smith has the ability to encapsulate elements of nature in music. Songs like ‘Quiet Dawn’, ’Sunbeams’ and ‘Meditations’ are perfect for taking time out of your day to welcome a change of pace. The song titles alone are enough to give you an indication of how fitting they are.

Good God! Apocryphal Hymns – Various Artists

You may not be religious, but there can be something hopeful about others’ beliefs. And for us, rejoicing in the beauty of the world and comfort in the belief that there is a protective force at work is helpful for getting through some darker days.

Chet Baker – In New York

Like Dylan’s Blonde on Blonde, this album has the power to transform your environment. Raining outside? Chet Baker’s calming trumpet lines are able to transform any moment into a romantic one. After all, who doesn’t love romantic music whilst it’s pouring down outside?

Sam Cooke – Mr Soul

There is no greater voice than that of Sam Cooke’s. The smooth, lilting quality of his voice acts as the perfect accompaniment to just sitting back and watch life go by.

Enjoy!
