Artwork for Watermelon Theory

Watermelon Theory

Hosted by clairevoyant

The Watermelon Theory: anytime you see pink out in the world, green will inevitably be nearby. Placebo? Perhaps. Enabled by the ubiquity of green? Maybe. But, despite being nearly perfectly opposed on the color wheel, they complement one another. The combination evokes different associations than pink or green on their lonesome. In packaging these hues together through the shared context of watermelon, they find new meaning. Whether you believe me or not, next time you spot some pink out in the world I guarantee green will be in the vicinity-- it's up to you to indulge my theory.

Watermelon Theory is a show of vaguely thematically cohesive playlists carefully curated for your listening enjoyment-- the common thread acting as pink and green's 'watermelon.'

• A spinoff of "Thesaurus" known for fan-favorite playlists like One Hit Wonders, Nothing Gold Can Stay, Donnie Darko, & Cherry Blossom Indie Rock. Circa 2022, 2023.

Soothe your Soul (Sort of)

Core tracks inspired by contemporary soul, r&b, and jazz for your morning! These tracks are often described as 'easy listening,' but they are much more than that. While their emotional spectrum is more narrow-- unlike a power ballad or a pop anthem-- they are thematically just as dramatic and deep. They’re 'easy listening' in the sense that they are subtle and honest.
