Greenwich Park Mixtape

Sidetrack mixtape

Greenwich is river light, maritime swagger, and the Observatory’s quiet reminder that time is a construct (and also a gift shop). This mixtape walks you from the Thames path up through the park — dramatic, a little theatrical, properly London.

Tracklist

1. Waterloo Sunset — The Kinks River light and London myth — Greenwich’s emotional cousin.
2. Orinoco Flow — Enya Half joke, half perfect: Thames as open-water fantasy.
3. Time — Pink Floyd Observatory energy; clocks, cosmos, mild existentialism.
4. Lust for Life — Iggy Pop Cutty Sark swagger; walk with a bit of strut.
5. Sea Song — Robert Wyatt Tender and odd — maritime melancholy without the foghorn.
6. Empire State of Mind — Jay-Z / Alicia Keys Big-city ambition with the skyline across the water.
7. Holocene — Bon Iver Park hill perspective: tiny you, long river, deep time.
8. Green Light — Lorde Night market / foot-tunnel exit energy — go.
9. River — Joni Mitchell Quiet path under trees when you need the soft version.
10. Beyond the Sea — Bobby Darin Cheeky closer: Greenwich doing its classic maritime wink.
