Soft focus feelings & disco-fuelled delusions
Welcome back to Cloud Droppings, the corner of the internet where our streaming history spills its secrets and we pretend it was all very intentional.
This edition drifts between late-night longing and mirrorball mischief — four tracks that shimmer, sway, and occasionally send you into a tasteful emotional spiral. From whispered almost-texts to full-body synth workouts, consider this your carefully uncurated dispatch from the algorithm’s more interesting side streets.
Headphones on. Feelings optional. Dancing highly encouraged.

This one feels like a voice note you swore you wouldn’t send… but did anyway. Ms Ray floats in all soft-focus sincerity while Nourished By Time sprinkles the beat with glossy percussion and synth sparkles that practically wink at you. It’s tender, it’s groovy, it’s mildly emotionally irresponsible. The kind of track that makes you stare at your ceiling at 1:12am thinking, “I’m fine.” (You are not fine. But at least it sounds great.)
Emmit Fenn bottles pure late-night atmosphere here. “Perfume” doesn’t just play — it lingers. Like that one scent you smelled once in 2014 and still haven’t emotionally recovered from.
It’s all hazy electronics, soft-edged vocals and neon reflections on imaginary rain-soaked streets. If your playlist had a “main character walking home dramatically” setting, this would auto-queue itself without asking permission.
Ah yes, Lykke Li — patron saint of beautiful emotional spirals.
“Lucky Again” wraps heartbreak in silk and hands it back to you like it’s a gift. There’s hope in there, sure. But it’s the kind of hope that still keeps one eyebrow slightly raised. You’ll feel healed for approximately 3 minutes and 42 seconds… then immediately text someone you absolutely should not. Gorgeous. Dangerous. On brand.
Lewis OfMan arrives with disco-charged, synth-powered chaos in the best possible way. “Electronicity” sounds like a drum machine fell in love at a roller rink and decided to document the experience.
It’s funky, fizzy, and just self-aware enough to make you grin mid-groove. You don’t choose to dance to this — your shoulders start moving first and your brain catches up later.
Together, these four feel like the soundtrack to a golden-hour montage where you’re strutting down the street with unreasonable confidence, dramatic inner monologue fully activated… before remembering you left the oven on.
Simply cinema.
