New for U
We all like to have a certain song that will forever remind us of a specific summer. Something that represents all the BBQs with friends, skinny dipping in lakes and hangovers sweating in your pants. Regardless of Europes current inability to allow summer to start proper, I search high and low for that elusive track that SCREAMS été 2012; which i believe I have found in the form of Andrés “New for U”
Its everything a summer track should be: Rolling and repettive with a simple warm melody that rises like the july temprature. It reminds me a little of Chemical brothers seminal “Star guitar” in its underlying samples constant motion, while its faux string melody gives it a wonderful originality and warmth.
It may be raining 98% of the time even as we are in the middle of May but the heatwave is blasting through my macbook speakers like broken airconditioning on a summer car ride to the beach.

The search for your “soudtrack to the summer” can be a difficult one. Trying to get the mood just right for all them late nights, cocktails and lazy days in parks watching topless bodies. For your consideration, Suzanne Kraft.
A down-tempo sunday find to accompany the lovely burst of sunshine; here is the Marvelous “Ish” with his synth/folk/disco hybrid ode to superman “Faster than a speeding bullet.”
This just randomly popped up and i feel the need to share with you.
