Perseid Playlist

As promised, on our earlier "Tips for Photographing the Perseid Meteor Shower" post, we've compiled a playlist for the occasion. Whether you are lying alone under the stars or throwing a Perseid Party this playlist makes a great soundtrack to what will, undoubtedly, be an unforgettable show!

We start with Pitbull's Fireball as we set the mood for the night! It then makes a pretty crazy journey through several genres as we move through space at a velocity of 828,000 km/hr, while we appear still as we gaze up into the night sky. We like our musical journeys to be just as unpredictable as we are! You can listen to/follow this list on our Spotify!
