Set List

New series!! Reaction videos and reviews every Friday!

The first 3 videos are reactions to the Taylor's Versions of my favorite songs from Speak Now!

We're on backlog reacting and reviewing things that came out 2 months ago, yes, but that means you will have a few weeks of content before I disappear again, if I do.

So enjoy and see you next Friday! Supporters on Ko-Fi get all videos a week early! Click here and check all the perks out

Hey, Tumblr! Here's why you should support me on Ko-Fi #KoFiChallenge

Hi! I'm Giulia. I'm a journalist, a writer, a creator, a bookworm and many other things.

On February, 29th, 2020 (leap day!), right before we all got locked at home for months on end, I started Set List. The whole idea was to have a place where I could share my love for music and talk about the artists I love.

Nearly 3 years later, a lot has changed, and the blog that started behind a paywall is now moving to Tumblr so more people can see it.

Set List helped me survive the multiple times I got unemployed during the pandemic, and these days it is still a big part of my income, through the people who support my work on one-off and monthly donations on Ko-Fi! You can subscribe in different tiers, buy a personalized playlist just for you on the shop or comission your own music to be part of one of the playlists. Learn more about me and Set List on my Ko-Fi page and please support me if you can!

“Set List” is a collection of music reviews, playlists and music related articles written and curated by journalist and author Giulia Santana.

On the Radar: Bahari's "Savage" ft. BIA

On the Radar is Set List's new semi-regular column of reviews of music that show up on our Spotify's Release Radar. If you see any song on that playlist you want covered, message us!

Bahari's new remix of their hit song Savage adds the spice we didn't know we needed. The remix returns to what a remix should actually should be, not only adding a fire verse by Boston rapper BIA, but reimagining the whole song. Duo Bahari — formed by bassist/vocalist Natalia Panzarella and pianist/vocalist Ruby Carr — rerecorded vocals and wrote over the original beats making the song much closer to their current sound, in comparision to the 2018 version.

The new music video is also a whole new interpretation of the sassyness and sensuality of Savage, that has lyrics like "You know I'm not a saint/But I can make you pray/So get down on your knees/give me a reason I should stay". It shows that Bahari's new era is going to be exactly the right amount of dark mixed with the right about of sexy to breakthrough.

Kira Kosarin Tells a Studio Story She Never Told Before

SURPRISE!

I've been meaning to do this for a few months but I finally edited this clip from the inteview I did with Kira back in June 2020, that became the piece "Kira Kosarin is Taking Flight". 

I might edit a few more soon and post if that's something you guys will like, but this one is definitely one of my favorite parts of the interview. If you enjoy it, make sure to leave a like and tell me if you want more.

See you soon!
