Hey folks! Hope you're having a pleasant time enjoying your summer days!
The time has come for our next 'In Our Headphones' blog and I can tell you that the sun is most definitely not the only thing packing serious 🔥heat🔥 right now! And with this in mind, don't forget to keep some water with you during the days and with this in mind, let's dive into this month's selection of 'In Our Headphones' 🎧:
Starting off with what I've personally been enjoying these days, here's two tracks heavily associated with that one Norwegian lad, playing football for Manchester City. Have you already guessed who he is? I'll let the songs do the talking 😄
spotify:track:0hwPOwj3rojFt33NhaxNUy
spotify:track:0Qfa6NUVsPBJVNNedmyjvq
The tracks that follow are what seems to be AI covers, and, although AI music is highly controversial, these two I like quite a lot:

For @Maria July has been a mix of all vibes and genres:

Thank you, Mima! Next up on the list is @Dessi:
I've mostly been listening to 2 of my favorite Irish bands lately, so here are the tracks I've had on repeat:
spotify:track:3Ady96jE1eszfh4kwYIbFy
spotify:track:1NoRJJ4QFJayxdmW4yq36h
I also finally managed to watch the Peaky Blinders movie and the soundtrack was a match made in heaven. Here's a song that stood out for me and you can also find the singer of the abovementioned Fontaines D.C. on it:

Thanks, Nik! Moving on to a curated list by @Joan!
After last month, I've been left on a really strong early 2000s mood and that hasn't really gone away. I've been looking back on the decade and fondly remembering the good bits of it. The music of the time just has a unique vibe you can really recognize, I can't really explain it but it's there.

This song I discovered from a blog a few months back has really been stuck in my head. Just a pure, oldschool, dirty, nasty industrial metal banger! I've been blasting it a lot...and then I find out that my beloved Fear Factory have a cover of this. And I've had it on CD for a while, just never bothered to check out the bonus tracks. Still though, better to find it now when I can appreciate it more! And now I can choose between the grimy 90s original version or the polished modern version!

Such bangers, so much appreciated 😄 And also, with this in mind, it's only fitting that the next submissions should be from none other than @Elena:
This month my listening has been under the sign of an upcoming festival in Bulgaria. I have been loving House of Protection for about a year now and I was so very exited to see they are coming. Vended on the other hand are a band which I recently discovered and I truly wish I found them earlier so I would have more time to listen to them before I see them live.
spotify:track:16RGtyFe4q7MOfO7aa42ie
spotify:track:0WATUz2EzNC0NT8w4D3HE7
Many thanks to you both! That was some heavy stuff 🗿😄
To shift things up a bit before we run out of ink, here's the submissions from @Paula_Vi 😁:
I've been listening to Rosalía's new album (LUX) a lot because I saw her in a concert the other day (last Saturday, July 18th) and she's one of my favorite artists! But the songs I've loved the most and the ones that moved me more when I listened to them live were these two:
spotify:track:7o76sIawH9bRWsltcWfQfd
spotify:track:7GF92haKwJg9WUdnkTxRtr
And from @Iva, our newest Community addition 🎉🎉:
A nice Greek summer surprise! It also has a few versions with different artists, they're worth checking out:

Another summer banger by the two queens Tyla and Zara Larsson:
