Summer isn’t over yet! Check out our August playlist for some great new summer tracks, curated by our Music Supervisor team – with four featured tracks from Chris Robles.
During this summer there is been no shortage of great new releases, but these four tracks caught my attention and have been in constant rotation on my Summer 2017 playlist. Sit back and enjoy the rest of your summer with some new music.
Artist: Toro Y Moi
Twitter: @ToroyMoi
Track: Girl Like You
The first single from the recently released album Boo Boo is a chill song with an 80’s vibe (check out the visuals in the music video) yet still sounds current with a hint of auto-tuned trap sounding vocals that are, thankfully, not too overdone.
Artist: Jessie Ware
Twitter: @JessieWare
Track: Midnight
This song premiered on BBC Music last week as DJ Annie Mac’s “Hottest Record In The World” and I’d agree, it’s a very hot record. Jessie Ware’s impressive vocals are on full display on this track and shifts from soft in the verses to explosive in the choruses. There’s even a “Bennie And The Jets” inspired piano riff!
Artist: Dornik
Twitter: @DornikSpeaks
Track: God Knows
Dornik was first discovered by Jessie Ware to be her drummer which eventually led to him releasing his own music on his first solo album in 2015. “God Knows” is Dornik’s newest single that is a smooth soulful song produced by Jungle; it starts out with a 70’s sounding groove and then gets a little funkier as the song progresses.
Artist: TLC
Twitter: @OfficialTLC
Track: Way Back
This song sounds like it could’ve come out in the 90’s when TLC was at their prime. It has a nice laid back, summery West Coast vibe and even has Snoop Dogg as a guest spitting a few bars!
