Waves (RAC Mix)

As we know, I have an incredible respect for RAC and his melodious mixes and whenever I see that he has released one of his versions of an already good song, it's wise to prepare for the best. His flair on Miguel's "Waves" capitalizes on every existing strength of the original and delivers an astonishingly contagious beat, with his signature upbeat and bubbly exuberance. I always wonder what he'll do next, but for now this one is more than enough to keep me happy for awhile. Good stuff.

Love Myself (Fareoh Remix)

Gosh I just love the cheesy pump up song sometimes. "Love Myself" is exactly that and Fareoh just takes it to another level but, in a way, by excellently toning it down as it builds. Another danceable remix to add to the books!

You're Good But I'm Better

Kill J, thanks for killin it and getting all my sadness. I wasn't quite sure about this one at first, but the more I listened to it, the more I fell in love with it. I especially appreciate the vibrant chorus and the little "woo's!" spread throughout the track. With more and more songs these days I'm like, "Whoa, I've never heard anything like this!" and honestly it's hard to know what to expect. But nothing is better than being constantly pleasantly surprised! Keep it up Kill J.

Heavy Crown / Volvic

What ok this song just put me in a brilliantly good mood. The bubbly 80s synth is pleasantly uplifting alongside the positive vocals ("Everything will be just fine, by default or design...") and I can't get enough! The lyrics are open and honest in a way that pop music normally strays from, but that's what makes it so good.

Also, Y.O.U.'s latest single just dropped a few days ago. It's just as amazing:

West Coast

Fresh new Lana coming in HOT (no like, actual-west-coast-debuted-at-Coachella-hot). Even though this feels like one of those twisted California commercials littered with celebrities, it's signature Lana. Those somber slowed-down beats that combine perfectly with her whispery vocals work wonders in this tune. It's more of a rock-ish (saying that very loosely) vibe for her, but I still dig it. I'm excited to hear more singles from her upcoming album Ultraviolence.

Good Mistake

Mr Little Jeans is spectacular and really brings the sugar and spice in their latest "Good Mistake." The whispery vocals before the outburst of the chorus help to make this song incredibly catchy and is yet another one that I can't stop listening to. Also the name of the track is awesome, because every mistake is a good one if you can take something away from it.
