Listen Up: 21st May
Warm weather tunes
Thoughts:
Another good season of music. Started this playlist April 15th and have been building it since. Placing my favorites hyperlinked below.
New Songs:
Man I Need by GianMattus 🎧: What a banger. If you like any of the Jersey mixes, this is for you. It takes a song that was honestly lacking in its boogie ability and completely transforms it into a game changer.
Stay Over by Onlyfriends ☀️: A really smooth house and garage track. Very much a summery tune made for situationship land.
Trust Issues by Kay Moss 💥: Probably my favourite song in the playlist. I am a sucker for a house track with a female vocalist, a strong drop, and unexpected beats, and this hits every pillar perfectly.
Right Back by Karlee Girl ⭐: I love anything connected to Katseye, and this song hits every spot. You can dance to it, sing to it, act dramatic to it, anything really.
Illuminate by Jessie Reyez, Elyanna, and FIFA Sound 🌅: I am so curious about the production of this song because FIFA is obviously involved, but it still has such a strong blend of Jessie Reyez and EDM. Another banger for the summmaaa.
What’s Done Is Done by Jorja Smith 🖤: Jorja Smith has a lot of great music, but only a few tracks really make you want to move. This release is definitely one of them.
Oldies but Goodies:
Check by Flo 🔁: Oldie but a goodie. Obviously made its comeback because of social media, but honestly, it still holds up.
Double Sided Girl by Casandra 💃: This has a bit of a Tyla style beat to it, but it is another housey female vocalist track with some español, which we love. Another little summer whine song, if you get me.
Rio De Janeiro by Tropkillaz and Sango 🎉: Love me some Brazilian and Portuguese sounding tunes. Recently found this one, and it is taking me right back to carnavaalllll.
Dividends by FS Green, Dave Nunes, and Karen Nyame KG ✈️: Recently discovered this album, and it is honestly fantastic. I think the whole thing is worth a listen, especially for a car ride or a flight.
