Summer is not all about being outdoors as the Black Eyed Peas “I Got A Feeling” has become a DJ’s best friend at almost every nightclub I have been too. The Barletta Remix takes it a couple of notches further to become one of the ultimate dance songs this summer.

Sweet and soothing, Zee Avi’s loving and innocent voice can wrap you up with her mellow song “Bitter Heart” and take you to better places. Her new self titled album Zee Avi was released May 19 of this year. Her popularity rose from posting a video on youtube that eventually caught on like wild fire which eventually led Brushfire Records (partly owned by Jack Johnson) to signed her.
