Hi there, I'm
Mandy Miller

I specialize in turning lives into playlists. Whether you’re reflecting on your first 10 years or honoring someone who’s passed, I help shape memory into music — crafting soundtracks that heal, celebrate, and echo across time.  

Think of me as your personal jukebox — tuned to your story, one track at a time. Your life. Your story. Your soundtrack — heard through the lens of your personal jukebox.

I don't just make playlists— I make sonic memoirs that can be passed down for years to come.

Sonic Archetypes: The Anthologist & The Alchemist


Side A:

Sonic Anthologist

As a self-proclaimed Sonic Anthologist, my mission is to honor the stories that shape you by transforming memory into deeply personal musical chronicles.

I’m part Memory Anthologist — a storyteller who preserves the past through conversation, poetry, and song — and part Sonic Biographer, capturing life in cadence, writing memory as verse, and preserving legacy through sound.

I craft playlists that become time capsules of emotion, rhythm, and meaning. Through empathy, artistry, and connection, I help you relive, celebrate, and share your journey — one song at a time. These soundtracks trace the emotional arc of a life, blending cultural touchstones with personal milestones to tell a story only music can.


Side B:

The Death Doula,
Sonic Alchemist

A creative role focused on memorial storytelling and music. Not a medical service. My work is in memory‑keeping, ritual design, and curated sound.

I am a ritual artist who helps families and friends distill memory into meaning through curated sound.

Grief is dense. Music is transmutation. I help you carry the weight — one vibration at a time.

​

Part remembrance, part ceremonial offering, each sonic archive becomes a vessel of transformation — turning sorrow into resonance, silence into song, memory into something golden. This isn’t just a playlist... it’s a soul-toned elegy. A ritual in rhythm. A final act of love set to sound.

My Story

I grew up in the era of analog mixtapes and burned CDs — back when making a playlist (like totally) meant something. For me, those mixes were more than just songs; they were stories. Soundtracks to crushes, chapters, and unspoken feelings. Music has always been my language of memory.

Sometimes, it only takes one song to bring back a thousand memories — because music is the closest thing we have to a time machine. 
I’ve always been intrigued by how we absorb things in childhood — through osmosis, through repetition, through rhythm. Without even realizing it, we internalize sounds, stories, and patterns that quietly shape who we become. What lingers becomes the echo of our upbringing — subtle, powerful, and often rediscovered later in life, like a forgotten chorus that suddenly returns.

The spark for Life Song Chronicles came when I noticed brands creating playlists to express their identity — and I thought, why don’t we do this for people? So I began with my own: a playlist anthology, a musical autobiography I could share with friends and family.

While composing the beginning of a soundtrack for my Granny Ruth, I shared the idea with my mom — and that’s when it hit me: I could interview her and create one, too. That was the moment everything clicked. To craft personalized, story-driven music anthologies.
Part interview. Part ritual. Part memoir.
