Guild Theory: VICE Playlist Project Entry

We’re excited to be entering the VICE Playlist Project. What stood out to us is the focus on moments rather than genres. It feels like a more honest way of placing music, based on when and how you actually experience a song.

For our entry, we’ve selected five tracks that trace a loose path through a night, each tied to a specific mood or turning point. Our own track The Statesman sits in 'Late Night Drive', with Cackled Smile in 'Afterparty 5AM'.

Then, things go to shit with Free From You in Your Crush Leaves With Someone Else, Broken Skies in Rage Quitting, and Sign & The Seal in Falling Asleep Alone.

Below are the songs we submitted:

The Statesman: Late Night Drive

Cackled Smile: Afterparty 5AM

Free from You: Your Crush Leaves With Someone Else,

Broken Skies: Rage Quitting

Sign & the Seal: Falling Asleep Alone

Thanks to VICE for running such a cool project and giving artists a different way to think about how music fits into people’s lives.

Wish us luck!
