Tems Playlist | Healing
Curating a Tems Playlist | I was in Auckland, New Zealand. Pulled over on the side of the road at about 10 o clock at night.. staring at the stars with the ocean infront of me..suddenly this song came on that Iโd never heard before as i listened to the raw emotion in the voice and the overall song with production and as i reflected on my life and the chaos within it, I began to shed a tear. At that moment i connected deeply with this song. That song was โFREE MINDโ by Tems
"And behind my mind it runs
All these thoughts have troubled me
Fighting to give up my pain"
From that day I became an immediate fan of TEMS.
After over a year of listening to Tems I thought it's time to run a mix, that i can personally listen to, but the respect I have for Tems is tenfold, if i was to do a mix, i didnt want it to just be in my home set up and rushed, I wanted to put effort in as a dedication to her.
Tems music inspires, uplifts and even heals people. Why not showcase other artists in the video and celebrate her music.
So thatโs what we did.
Originally we were going to hire a place out but instead approached Chika whoโs the owner of Salon De African Pride in Newtown and asked if we could shoot. Next we reached out to Lisa of Qemuโel hair and independently black owned business to see if she was available. Then we thought what if through out the video what if there was someone painting. The first person that came to mind was Flow State Jaz aka Jazmine Nikitta.
Lastly who would we get to shoot, color grade and edit.. of course Jack Billiau.
This shoot came out beautifully, I wish I could say it was easy but thereโs a lot of work that goes into it on and off the camera. Making sure everyoneโs availability lines up, scouting locations, actually making the playlist and practicing it so that all the transitions are smooth..
But we pulled it off and all enjoyed a meal from A Little Lagos during and after. The girls needed to wait until we said grace, which after the mix was done, we all gathered and held hands and I was able to pray for all of us and the blessing we shared together. It was a beautiful touch to the night as if you have been following Tems you would know what God means to her and it was beautiful to have a room of beautiful black God fearing woman invovled!
I hope you enjoy this, we spent alot more time on this than my usual youtube videos, I hope it blesses you and your day!
Let's grab a coffee

๐ง About This Track
This 49 minutes audio journey has been thoughtfully composed to provide an authentic experience featuring ocean sounds that have been carefully recorded and mastered for optimal relaxation. Every element has been balanced to ensure a consistent experience throughout, without jarring transitions or sudden changes that might disrupt your relaxation. The audio quality maintains professional standards, making it suitable for high-quality speakers, headphones, or sleep systems.
These ocean waves have been recorded at the perfect distance to capture both the powerful rush of water meeting shore and the gentle recession of foam on sand. The cyclical nature of waves naturally guides breathing patterns toward deeper, more relaxed rhythms. Each wave is unique yet consistent, creating an endlessly engaging soundscape.
Listening to this audio can provide numerous benefits for both mental and physical well-being. Ocean waves naturally guide the listener into meditative states through their rhythmic patterns. The negative ions associated with ocean environments have been linked to improved mood and mental clarity. Regular listening can help establish healthy sleep patterns and reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety.
Ocean waves produce what scientists call 'coherent' sound patterns - rhythmic, predictable sounds that the brain can easily process. Research from Brighton and Sussex Medical School found that natural water sounds trigger the rest-digest response in the autonomic nervous system. The tempo of ocean waves, typically around 12-15 cycles per minute, naturally aligns with relaxed breathing rates, creating a biofeedback loop that deepens relaxation. This may explain why coastal locations have long been associated with wellness and recuperation.
The community response to this audio has been genuinely appreciative, with 25,754 likes reflecting the genuine impact it has had on listeners worldwide. In the comments section, listeners share personal stories of how this audio has helped them through difficult times, aided their sleep, or provided a reliable source of calm during stressful periods.

Quality headphones can enhance the spatial qualities of the recording, though speakers work well for creating ambient environments. Adjust volume to your preferenceโlower for background ambience, slightly higher for active listening. Consistency in your listening routine can amplify benefits over time, as your mind learns to associate these sounds with relaxation.
This audio is particularly effective during: After a stressful day when you need to decompress; During quiet evening hours for peaceful ambience; Weekend relaxation and self-care time; Any moment when you need to step away from daily pressures.
