psipsyJapan is technically open to tourism again but they're requiring them to go with tour groups. No thanks. I'll wait for them to open up to individual tourists like before. Some progress is better than none. Looks like I'm sticking to road trips this year (and maybe next).
On my ipod, I have a curated playlist of music for road trips. The running time is about 15 hours, and I'm often adding music to it on a regular basis. Some are recent inspirations, others are songs I've associated with road trips for as long as I can remember, and some songs just ask to be on a road trip playlist. Some songs are better suited for night driving, some for the day, and some songs are best for the actual beginning. I'm not going to post all of them, just some of the juicy bits.
The playlist starts with this. It's got that vibe of Something Big Is Starting.
FictionJunction - "Here we stand in the Morning Dew"
This one has that effect too, even if that's not in the original context of the song.
Riya - "Two Shadows"
The road is calling.
Gordon Lightfoot - "Restless"
About an hour into the playlist is this. For me, an hour away is still mostly familiar.
Maaya Sakamoto - "I.D."
At some point, if you want to cover any kind of distance, you have to stop with the dilly-dally and step on the gas.
Outrun - "Magical Sound Shower"
