Each song had to be meticulously placed, the entire playlist had to flow seamlessly and putting an artist on there more than once was a cardinal sin. Gestures of that magnitude were typically reserved for significant others or potential significant others and were considered a big deal \u2014 especially if you included your own customized cover art.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you don\u2019t go all out, making a mix of great\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/?s=music\">music<\/a>\u00a0to smoke to \u2014 whether it\u2019s for yourself, someone else or to play in a social setting \u2014 is an art that requires equal parts effort and creativity. There aren\u2019t a lot of rules when it comes to making a playlist but there are some things that make a difference and show that you spent some time coming up with just the right combination and not simply putting your playlist on auto-pilot aka shuffle.<\/p>\n<p>Need some ideas on getting your 420 playlist together? Check out some of these suggestions to help you get started on the right track.<\/p>\n<h4>Curate your Vibe<\/h4>\n<p>First things first \u2014 what are you smoking and what\u2019s the mood you\u2019re going for? Is this background music or something you\u2019ll be paying attention to? Are you trying to chill out with a nice hybrid without any distractions? Maybe an instrumental album or beat tape will work. Do you want something to hype you up while you puff on sativa? Peruse your workout playlist for something upbeat and exciting. Once you\u2019ve decided how you want your playlist to make you feel, you\u2019ll have some direction that will give you an idea of where you want to start.<\/p>\n<h4>Pick a Theme<\/h4>\n<p>Although it\u2019s not completely necessary, it\u2019s a nice touch to have your playlist connect in some way even if it\u2019s just for fun. You can choose an era like \u201990s hip-hop, play exclusively reggae if you want to stick to a genre, opt for a keyword to bridge your songs together (ex: every song has the word \u201chigh\u201d or \u201cgreen\u201d in the title) or let the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/category\/cannabis\/grow\/strains\/\">strain<\/a>\u00a0of your choice influence your flow. The more creative and out of the box, the better.<\/p>\n<h4>Do Some Research<\/h4>\n<p>Not sure where to start? Lots of streaming services suggest similar or related artists that are in the same ballpark as what you\u2019re already listening to on a regular basis. Love\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/snoopdogg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Snoop Dogg<\/a>\u00a0but don\u2019t want to be hella obvious about your song choice? Find someone similar. Trying to avoid ubiquitous stoner rock? Let the internet lead you to greener pastures and new sounds. It\u2019s perfectly fine to stick to tried-and-true tunes that you know are certified jams, but stepping outside of the comfort of your downloaded tracks can not only make your playlist more exciting but can also broaden your musical horizons.<\/p>\n<h4>Pre-game Your Playlist<\/h4>\n<p>If you plan on using your playlist for a party or some other social gathering, give it a test run at home before you debut your masterpiece. As you listen, keep your audience, the environment and your desired experience in mind. If a fast song comes on right after a chill song, you might disrupt the vibe. Likewise, if a slow song follows something playful and high-spirited, it could kill the party. The key is to make sure there are smooth transitions that make sense and make you feel good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TELL US<\/strong>,\u00a0what music are you listening to?<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/project-playlist-how-to-find-the-right-420-tunes\/\">Project Playlist: How to Find the Right 420 Tunes<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\">Cannabis Now<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nRead More: <a href=\"https:\/\/cannabisnow.com\/project-playlist-how-to-find-the-right-420-tunes\/\" target=\"_blank\">Project Playlist: How to Find the Right 420 Tunes<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019re old enough, you may remember the terrific agony of combing through your music collection in an attempt to make the perfect mixtape.
