“You Are What You Love” May 25th by Kaitlin Perry

summer

Since summer is a remix in and of itself, I feel it is appropriate to do a refreshing playlist of remixes before I get back to doing my usual thing. Enjoy some new discoveries of my own and that have been shared with me.

1. N.A.S.A. ft. Kanye West, Lykke Li, Santigold – Gifted (Aston Shuffle Remix)
2. T.I. – Whatever You Like (DiscoTech Remix)
3. The Chemical Brothers – The Salmon Dance (Crookers Remix)
4. Calvin Harris – I’m Not Alone (Deadmau5 Remix)

In keeping with the summer vibe, here are a few of my favorite summer songs, not necessarily about summer, but remind me of summer. Perfect for the beach or just cruisin’ in the car, ranging in the styles of reggae to nerd-rock.

“The Heinrich Maneuver” – Interpol

“Santeria” – Sublime

“Hot Summer Nights (Won’t Last Forever)!” – The Aquabats

“Feelin’ Free” – Michael Franti and Spearhead

“I’ll Be Here Awhile (Acoustic)” – 311
