Funky sounds for the indoor season

» Rain doesn't have to just mean sadness

Matthew Fraser

hen the rain starts to fall and you have to

shuttle yourself indoors, there's a tendency to
retreat to the softer, sadder music in your collection.
Dreariness outside forces the same to come out
of your speakers or headphones and suddenly it’s
inescapable. The sun has gone so it seems easy to
ditch the energetic music. However, that isn’t always
the best thing to do; in fact, the extra bit of happiness
that flows from upbeat music could be precisely
what the fall and winter greys need.
Unfortunately, it is nearly impossible to turn your
whole day around with just one song, but a few in
a row can help bolster your mood and move you
onwards and upwards.
