]]> We may have been on lockdown, but the music world refuses to slow down! Albums are dropping and artists are working hard to give us a concert-free summer we’ll never forget.

Today, I’d like to keep it pretty chill– just sharing some recent music releases that will hopefully brighten another summer week without live music. Short and sweet, this playlist is a perfect way to wrap up the last week of June and prepare us to step into July ready to devour whatever our favorite artists throw at us. 

This week marked the release of two highly anticipated albums. Bassnectar finally dropped All Colors. Featuring a variety of sounds and tones, each song comes together to create this testament to positivity and creativity. Louis The Child also celebrated a release date this week, as their latest album, Here For Now, went live on the 26th. All I had to do was hear the first few notes, and I knew I was listening to the ultimate summer 2020 album (while a friend of mine heard the same song, and said, “Are we going to listen to this white girl music all day?” so y’know, check it out for yourself). 

Those aren’t the only new tunes at our disposal from this week, so I made sure to sprinkle in some new singles and remixes by artists like GRiZ, Flume, Zeds Dead, and more!

Enjoy 🙂

]]> Police brutality and racism in America have once again been catapulted to the foreground as cities are torn to pieces over the murder of George Floyd. Musicians are jumping in, using their large followings to show support and direct our attention to the deep, systemic issues rooted in our society’s foundation. Over the last few days, Bassnectar, along with many other artists, turned to social media to take a stand against injustice in this country, posting donation links and reminding everyone that Black Lives Matter. They have even challenged themselves, and each other, to match donations.

Rioting and chaos have broken out across the country amidst a global pandemic… What should artists be doing?

Maybe try to get friends and family to match your own donation (if you are able, of course)!

But what about the album?!

We LOVE to see artists using their platforms for good– promoting positivity and taking a stand when necessary– but we also love new music. Bassnectar served us both in the last week and a half, with a side of his Lockdown Mixtape.

Three new jams from his upcoming album All Colors were included in this week’s mixtape and are now available for streaming. “Rise & Shine,” “Rewind The Track,” and “Uebok Gotta Run” are another taste of the highly anticipated album to be released on June 19th. Each of these latest songs is completely different, guaranteeing a certain whimsical surprise factor when the full album drops next month. Fans are left wanting more, and we don’t even know what we’re asking for… it’s riveting. Between “Preview” and “Preview 2,” I think it’s safe to say that All Colors is shaping up to be a staple album of the summer.

It sure is nice to have something to look forward to during the apocalypse!
