Music of the month - September

I cannot really describe in words what music means to me. I'm definitely not a musically gifted person - I cannot sing and sadly I've never learned any instruments. But music can change my mood in a second. Give me instant goose pimples and a feeling of home.
For me it's often hard to understand how music cannot be important for some people; lyrics and the accompanied music can mean so much; reflect every little emotion you might feel. 
For a long time I didnt get into "new" music which made me sad - I love the feeling of exploring new music. Listening to your new favorite song for the first time. Thats the reason why I'll post a artist/song of the month from now on.
Last month I discovered the band Daughter. I've already had Daughter in my new artists Spotify playlist for at least 6 months, but I've never really listened to it. Then I needed a break from all the lab noises and discovered some you tube playlists containig Daughter. From that moment on I was in love. I'm a sucker for haunting music and female voices. Her lyrics are phenomenal; some songs are reflecting my feelings perfectly. I know that many people do not like melancholy and haunting music, but I tend to be a rather pessimistic and thoughtful person and her songs give me a feeling of contentment. I particually love the demo Run, Youth and her awesome Get Lucky cover. If you haven't checked her out yet, it is worth a listen.

Welcome

I've tried this a lot of times; had at least 3 different livejournal, a tumblr, dreamwidth, pinterest and at least a few blogger acounts.
I tend to ramble a lot, love little things. I guess I'll write recipes, fashion stuff and other things I like.
As work is exhausting and takes up a lot of time I need to have a place to arrange all my thoughts and to collect memories besides being in a lab.
Let's see how long I'll continue this.
