We may have kissed another Summer goodbye, but you can always count on some late farewells even after the season has come to a close. This year it’s the bumping groove of Pat Lok to give us a final taste of musical heat, taking on the tribal vibes of Autograf’s ‘Dream’ and kicking things up a notch with a sweltering bassline. With a host of switch-ups throughout the ride, this is one slick mix that brings a whole new freshness to a track we’ve been spinning plenty often this year. Basenji’s ‘Petals’ is another one that’s received big love in 2015, and off the back of news of his impending debut EP, we’ve been gifted with another gem in ‘Can’t Get Enough’. Going down the vocal road has paid dividends for the creative producer of late, and together with the stellar input from Brasstracks, this one is dripping in cheesy happiness that’s got us feeling some kind of way. We’re hooked on those sweet emotions for the moment, so it’s only right we share buji’s foray into the vocal space with ‘Dreamcast’. Channeling a unique combination of Fetty Wap, game references and superb future sounds, this one will tug on those nostalgic heartstrings from beginning to end.
It was only a matter of time before we ran into a song with this title, but thankfully Shleepytime brings all the right vibes you’d expect from ‘Netflix and Chill’. Nothing sets the mood quite like expert chord progression, cheesy slap bass and that iconic jersey water drop sample, so we just had to invite this one over into our playlist this week. We’ve spent heaps of quality time with Porter’s ‘Sad Machine’ across the course, but even when you think you’ve heard them all, an inspirational piece from no idea why comes along to completely blow your mind all over again. It’s a slow build towards the epic climax of this song, but in every moment before and after you can hear the painstaking detail that’s gone into the incredibly beautiful soundscape. Pure chills.
You’ve been warned, this edition is heavy on the feels. Peace out.
