Music: Your Soundtrack to Summer Days

The sun is back in London this weekend and it’s time to hit the parks and blast the sound system with some fresh summer vibes. We have made our ultimate summer time playlist – just what we wanted to listen to in this sunny weather. Check out our Felix Fridays #5 playlist here: http://spoti.fi/2v76PU8

There’s probably a lot of acts you already know in this one. We start off with Magic Potion’s ‘Jelly’. You may not be familiar with them, but really should be, as they have some of the most mellow and chill tunes out there.

More sun, more guitars, Welsh singer Cate Le Bon follows with ‘Rock Pool’, followed by Liverpool based trio Trudy and The Romance and Allah Las.

Of course, no summer playlist is complete without at least one Mac Demarco tune, so you will be happy to know we included ‘Ode to Viceroy’, one of our favourites.

We continue with more tunes perfect for this summer, a little bit indie a little bit rock. There’s a good reason why Marika Hackman and The Big Moon decided to tour together in the US. Both are musts in this summer playlist, so make sure you check out ‘My Lover Cindy’ by Marika Hackman and ‘Cupid’, a classic by The Big Moon (with a pretty funny video too).

ISLAND are a four-piece band with some killer tunes but our favourite summery tune by them has to be ‘Waves’. Catch them on their UK tour in November and if you enjoy ISLAND, then you will love Palace. Their song ‘Bitter’ is simply beautiful and a perfect addition to our summer playlist, as is ‘Powderbaby’ one of our favourite tunes by Beach Baby.

We end our Felix Fridays #5 playlist on some more electronic beats with mysterious producer Chelou’s ‘Aneurysm’, London based producer Dominic Wolf’s latest single ‘Wasting Life’, Australian duo Jagwar Ma’s latest ‘Skipping’ and producer TSUKI’s ‘BOY’.

We also included a new band we discovered recently- Palace Winter. Their single ‘Menton’ is insanely good and we hope everyone will know them very soon.

Enjoy the sunshine, enjoy the summer, enjoy the rain (probably) but most importantly, enjoy our Felix Fridays #5 playlist and don’t forget to give us a follow to be on top of every Felix Fridays playlist!
