In Our Headphones: July 2020

[Petya]

Hey all! 

While July is ending, we'd like to put something here to remember it by 🙂 And what better way to describe how July was for each one of us, than with a favorite song or two!

One track that played in @Ivan's headphones over and over again was Jalisco from Babeheaven - "I found this track some time ago listening to the Dreampop playlist on Spotify. I loved it immediately because of the ethereal vocals and the steady beat on the background."

@Emil tunes in with the track Heat Waves from Glass Animals. He enthusiastically tells us how he came across this one - "I've got introduced to Glass Animals via a very interesting person around 4 years ago. Since then, they've been a go-to sound I can play among all sorts of situations - parties with a lot of people, hikes in the nature, casual gatherings and a lot more. Their sound can somehow be liked by people with all sorts of music tastes and preferences. They're definitely on my bucket list of artists to see live!" 

I don't know about you but by the way he introduced it, I definitely wanna hear that song 🎵

Next on our list is @Xenia. She confessed that she's "been binge watching one series after another, so my choices for this month all come from soundtracks".

After the soundtrack wave of songs, it's time for Russian music added by @Elena. Here's what she shares - "With Spotify launching in Russia I made all my choices Russian songs to celebrate. Russian rap and pop is pretty much all I listen to on daily basis and the last month hasn't been an exception."

Then we have one of our new mods - @Alex who shares 3 of his on-repeat-songs for this month. Here's what he has to say about them: 

"Dub Libitum - No money no fame - Amazing breath of fresh air in these hard times. It made my day the first time I heard it a few months ago and I just can't stop listening to it. Share the love!"

"Clio - Deja Venise - Super cute little song."

spotify:track:4xPi4Frqv6FHxbiAERL53r

"Hayley Kyoko - This side of paradise - The perfect track to jam to on those golden summer roadtrips."

After Alex come Vyara's musical additions:

spotify:track:19LiotxKSVs7FeVMEdHz63

"This year Eurovision didn't happen. But that doesn't mean that we can't enjoy the bobs from this year. This song is in a typical Eurovision style-epic."

spotify:track:25eL7ZkT8ZQTLox8V0vgSd

"This one is no surprise. It fits perfectly my mood for the summer."

And last but definitely not least is our 3rd new addition to the moderators' team - @Mihail. Here's his music contribution:  

spotify:track:4wOV6NFBGsahcfQuGCbsUv

"One of the songs I keep repeating, as this month I happen to be on a UK Hip Hop vibe. It has a positive message and killer beat & vocals that just go hand in hand with the warm, sunny days meant for relaxing and enjoying life."

And, before you go, here's our playlist for July - enjoy! See you in August 🏖

Thanks for all the tips! I used to be in a monthly record club where you got a 'surprise' album. Glass Animals was one of them, love that band @Emil. They're on tour with the new album!
