| I KNEW signing up for this SpaceX trip was a mistake... |
Let's see - what's been going on during the last month? A SpaceX rocket exploded, or per their own statement on the matter, experienced a "rapid unscheduled disassembly". Tucker Carlson and Don Lemon were fired from their respective jobs. And I am STILL taking Zyrtec daily because pollen season decided to run extra long this year. I do have a new mix of songs, though! Enjoy! And to listen on Spotify, click HERE.
1. Beautiful People (Jessie Ware) - Jessie has blessed us with a new album of danceable confections, so I figured this was a great place to start us off!
2. 10:35 (Tiësto feat. Tate McRae) - More club-ready beats from Dutch DJ
3. Happiness (the 1975) - Upbeat pop that's perfect for anyone's summer playlist!
4. All Night Long /Amerigo Gazaway Remix/ (Patric Pleasure) - Funky R&B via Switzerland.
5. Smoke (Victoria Monét feat. Lucky Daye) - It's always fun to see artists you enjoy team up, even if the topic is illegal in many states!
6. Hearts Aglow (Weyes Blood) - Warm, slightly retro vibes from West Coast singer/songwriter.
7. Oas (Dina Ögen) - First time I heard this, I thought Joni Mitchell had learned Swedish! As warm and delicious as any Swedish meatball, but much less fattening.
8. Pilgrim (the Wood Brothers) - Bluesy, countrified Americana from NYC band.
9. Cherry Red Boots (the Nude Party) - I'm totally digging the 1950s stylings from this NC band!
10. Call Me What You Like (Lovejoy) - Muscular Indie Rock from English band.
11. Bad at Letting Go (Leland feat. MUNA) - Tasty pop collaboration with frequent Brantworld listees MUNA!
12. All I Really Wanna Do (Devon Gilfillian) - The latest from up-and-coming Nashville soul singer/songwriter.
13. Lavender Haze /Snakehips Remix/ (Taylor Swift) - British duo gives TSwizzle's latest hit a house music upgrade!
14. Dancing in a Hurricane (Freya Ridings) - Hurricane Season isn't quite here yet, but I salute her joyous defiance!
15. Motive (Blossom Club) - Easygoing electronica from Parisian duo.
16. This Isn't Helping (the National feat. Phoebe Bridgers) - Phoebe Bridgers has got to be one of the busiest artists working today. Not only is she a member of the trio Boygenius, she's also giving assists to artists like The National!
17. Time (Nico Paulo) - Sumptuous soft rock from Portuguese/Canadian artist.
18. Eat Your Young (Hozier) - This feels like a change of style for Hozier, but I'm digging it! Curious to hear the new album!
19. Still Here (Rissi Palmer with Miko Marks) - Another NC artist to close us out, with some bluesy rock to get everyone in the mood for summer concert season!
So that's May's playlist! Hope everyone has a safe month, and we'll see you in June!
