10 top playlists to bring the mood

We’ve pulled together our fave Spotify playlists to get you through the lockdown with a spring in your step. For a playlist to suit any mood and get you pumped up (or chilled out), check out our top 10.


1 / Cityscape Sounds by Cityscape Magazine

Yes, we have our own playlist of bangin’ tunes that we have on high rotation at Cityscape HQ. These chill jams are perfect to simmer in the background if you’re working from home and want some relaxing noise, or to have a wee chillaxed moment.


2 / Isolation Jams by Craig Shaw


DJ Shawsy has put together the ultimate isolation jams across eight separate playlists to suit whatever mood you may be in. There’s a downbeat one for when you just want to zone out, a house music one to have you pumped up and cutting shapes, and an eclectic playlist for those out-there bangers.


3 / New Music Friday by Spotify


Just because we're in lockdown doesn't mean you need to fall behind on all the latest tracks to hit the airways. The New Music Friday playlist brings the best fresh new songs of the week for your listening pleasure.


4 / triple j’s Like A Version by triple j


Each week triple j (an over-the-ditch radio station) welcomes artists to perform their own take on current hits or a classic song. The covers serve up ultra-chillaxified vibes and include renditions by Billie Eilish, Matt Corby, Tones & I, Tash Sultana and Lime Cordiale, just to name a few.


5 / Walk Like a Badass by Spotify


Big riffs and pounding drums to help you strut the streets (or the house) with sass in your step. Serving up action from Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Arctic Monkeys, Foals and Muse, there’s powerful guitars, catchy lyrics and standout beats to have your head bopping along.


6 / Relaxing Songs by Iyssastreiner


If you need to unwind and de-stress, this playlist has got your back. Perfect to put you to sleep or zone out to while putting your feet up, it features Tame Impala, Ed Sheeran, Birdy, Vance Joy and Lana Del Rey – yes please.


7 / Yoga and Meditation by niner3434


Get your zen on and stretch those muscles with these sweet sounds. Whether you’re taking some time for yourself to focus and forget about the world, practising yoga or just need help to clear your mind, this playlist has got you covered.


8 / Housework Hits by Spotify


The housework never stops, but that doesn't mean you can’t groove along to some tunes while powering through your chores – these upbeat tracks will have you flying through them. The playlist features loads of classic Kiwi tunes – the best part is you don’t need to be doing housework to enjoy the awesomeness.


9 / Horoscope Playlists by Spotify
