The Cadogan Playlist
Words by Belmond Editors
Based between London and Ibiza, the Danish DJ and music curator Fiona Jane effortlessly bridges these two different destinations in her work. Particularly her music, which is an ode to the spirit that inhabits these two places, both unique sanctuaries for creatives.
Through her specially curated playlist created for The Cadogan, Fiona dives into how she marries tracks, with the London luxury hotel on her mind. The songs she shares reflect the sounds that shape her inspirations in the city, perfectly paired with sipping a cocktail at Willett’s, The Cadogan’s new British bistro. Press play to discover life – and London – as Fiona sees it, one track at a time.
