Introducing Decorated Playlists, a website I have put together, dedicated to the close relationship between music & design. I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge of music, but now that I no longer DJ I need a new outlet for this.

I have previously dabbled with the combination of design and mixtapes/playlists on the Bones Brigade Dj’s site and also in a tribute I made to Serge Gainsbourg, but I wanted to take it a step further. The final piece of the jigsaw came to me after I contributed a mix to the fabulous designers.mx project. You can think of each playlist as an art-directed blog post, but with music instead of words.

I will be adding new lists as and when the mood takes me, each one will have it’s own unique feel and I intend to do a lot of experimenting with CSS and HTML5, hurrah.
