1. Closure - Vancouver Sleep Clinic, Drew love

When I say this song sent me directly into my feels, but head bobbing all the way 😫 it'd be a understatement. I've always loved Vancouver sleep clinic, but damn. This song crossed all the genres I loved with the added benefit of a good baseline. It reminded me of a past relationship of mine that ended too fast. I held on even after it ended thinking things could change, and of course, because we can't control others feelings, it didn't. But it was definitely a valuable lesson and I grew a lot from it.

2. Barely Friends - Drama

It's funny how life always gets in the way of how we love. It doesn't matter what kind of relationship (friendships, lovers, spouses, family), life always happens, like a storm out of nowhere and our love just doesn’t translate the way it used to. This song makes me remember those people in my life who I’ve grown apart from but still love. It also reminds me to be conscious of how my relationships are changing. 

3. Hallucinogenics (Vallis Alps Remix) - Matt Maeson

This song beat hypnotic, and Matt Maeson’s voice was the catalyst I needed to fall in love. It takes me back to my toxic relationship with weed lol weird as that is. I used it smoke a lot, and it was only to drown out the feelings that I was trying to get over (another break up of course haha). But the songs definitely a vibe and will definitely get stuck in your head. 

4. Warm - Dre’es

Warm makes me feel that, just warm and fuzzy. It’s a very positive and hopeful vibe, the wavelength I've been riding for the past couple days. It’s smooth, sweet, and a good song to smile too as your walking through the city. Definitely one of my favorites from this mixtape. 

5. Dylm - Hennes, DEAN, Voppa

This right here. THIS RIGHT HERE!! This is my I’m ready to dance and let loose song! I heard it on the drive up and instantly wanted to be on a dance floor letting loose and feeling myself. The artist is really new too, so go show your support. I’d say the mood for this is “I had a bad week and I’m ready to let loose on the dance floor for a couple hours.”

6. Summer Luv (Chrome sparks remix) - Whethan, The knocks, Crystal Fighters

This song is giving me “summer rooftop party” vibes. It’s giving me “I aint a vsco girl but a bitch might get a tie-dye shirt, a scrunchy, iced coffee and live a little” vibes. It’s giving me “I usually like hip hop but this electro shit has me bopping” vibes. Definitely not my usual, but can’t help to jam out to this for a hot minute, or 5 haha. It’s cute don’t @ me. 

7. Nothing But You - Devault, Donnie Sloan

This songs another one of my fave’s, as is the artist Devault. This is more the “let loose at home” or “ballad in the shower” vibes. This shit has versatility. haha no but really, I love the flow. It’s cool and original, the beat is sick, and  the lyrics are cute, not gonna lie. this definitely wasn’t a song from this weekend though. This played on my Spotify radio as I was landing in Paris for my month long vacation earlier this summer. For me it feels like the start of something great. 

8. I’m a Rock - Jitwan

If you’re looking for that r&b funk sound to rock too, look no further, cause Jitwan’s come through with that fire and flames. He’s a new artist that popped up on my radar and when I first heard him, it was love at first listen. The beat’s new but old at the same time. Very Toro y Moi esque. Such a seductive vibe got my hips shaken and knees quaken (corny I know but I’m rolling with it. 

9. Nevada - River Tiber

You can’t help but sing along to this, or at least I can’t. I reminds me of how I always get caught off guard when I start liking someone. I let my mind drift and I’m already imagining our fictional relationship. Getting lost in the idea of love blossoming from a very real spark that I may have felt. This song pays hommage to how I always sweep myself off my own feet into the sunset. It reminds me that it’s okay in moderation. Get lost a little in the love, just make sure you come back to reality. 

10. Always Afternoon - Medasin, Kathleen

So my favorite time at home is Golden hour, and whenever I get to the stage of bringing someone I like to my house, it’s always around that time. For me the afternoon glow is a beautiful moment and I love sharing it. It sometimes feels like a dream too, and I wish it could last forever. That what this song reminds me off :) Golden hour in wonderful company and a good closing to this weeks playlist.
