ASIATODAY.ID, HONG KONG – With travel plans up in the air for many in the foreseeable future, brand communications consultancy CatchOn, a Finn Partners Company, stokes wanderlust with the ultimate summer playlist series—‘Anywhere and Here’—curated by global tastemakers known for creating fantastical worlds and experiences.
Tapping music’s ability to transport us to a place and time, the playlist series was designed to inspire travel at a time when we’re homebound. The sand dunes of Africa, the river banks of the Ganges, the dreamy French Riviera, and the ultimate ‘island in the sun,’ Bali, are just some of the destinations inspiring the playlists. The series will be mounted on music streaming platform Spotify, and a Q&A with each tastemaker will be available on CatchOn’s website.
