Breed’s playlist of the month – Pitch & Sync

Previously we’ve asked our artists which ten tracks they’ve repeat played on their music player, spun most often on their deck or turned up when they come on the radio and shared the results with you each month.

Now, we’ve decided to expand our horizons and ask some of our favourite people and clients as well.

First up for December is one our favourite neighbours and long-time Breed collaborators Pitch & Sync. They’re an agency with a rich musical heritage who use their knowledge to add sounds to brands – from clearing rights for them to use existing tracks to creating new compositions to order.

These are the ten tunes they selected to represent the current ambiance in their office.

Grace Carter:

Wicked Game

Rating third in BBC Music’s ‘Sound of 2019’ according to music industry artists and experts, Grace Carter first came to attention supporting Rag‘n’Bone Man and Dua Lipa. This cover of Chris Isaak’s 1991 hit looks set to raise her profile yet further.

Angel Olsen:

All Mirrors

In the past St Louis native Angel Olsen has worked with Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy and Mark Ronson. This track comes from her fourth album, also titles ‘All Mirrors’.

LÉON:

Body
