Beats on the table

A taste of art – Mix Fix

by Laura De Cesare

If we have to think about the pleasure of life, we usually have in our mind food, but also music. Music to chill out, music to have fun, music to reflect, or music to dance. And why don’t you mix up the two pleasures?

Below and also by scanning the QR code, you can see and listen to a perfect playlist with songs that have as the main topic food. You can find the use of food to remember a love story passed by, to personify the new bellowed, to criticise the political or consumerist system, to mention sex, or to entertain the listeners.

So, if you are cooking, eating or just lying in bed, enjoy our music proposals.
