Spotify Playlist

SCOPE Selects: Aspen Suthers Spotify Playlist

The Deep Cuts

This playlist is a mix of old and current favorites, featuring upbeat electronic songs with a little twist of melancholy indie-rock to keep it interesting. I’m drawn to anything with unique, surprising sound effects—Whenever I listen to music, I want to feel like I’m on a whimsical adventure. My selects are ideal for running, jumping, twirling, staring into the void, and everything in between.

Three Favorite Albums

Norman Fucking Rockwell! By Lana Del Rey

Discovery by Daft Punk

A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out by Panic! At the Disco

Favorite Concert Experience

Lana Del Rey at Lollapalooza 2023 <3. As a pretty diehard Lana fan, this was a really special experience. The festival crowd was intimidating and we had to fight to keep our spots near the front, but her performance made it sooo worth it. To this day I still reminisce on how beautiful the stage looked and how well-rounded the set was, including some of my favorites from all of her eras.

Hobbies / Interests / Fun Facts / Campus Involvement

I’m named after Aspen, Colorado. In my free time, I like spending time outside, baking, and making art. I’m a super fan of Bob’s Burgers and have lots of trinkets to prove it. After graduation, I plan to further develop my creative skills and go into advertising!
