halfway mark | a july soundtrack

The first of July brings with it a new-found hope. That day is the middle of the year, and marks the 6 month mark until 2020 hits us like a ton of bricks. But we like to take it slow around here, and we’re soaking up every moment we can with new music gems cropping up all month. Check out our soundtrack below for incredible newbies from Shayfer James, Maria Usbeck, Mattia Cupelli, Carriers, Feather Weight, Rager, and more! And don’t forget to check back all month long for new jams!

“Heart beats” is a playlist full of sultry sounds. From funky tunes to instrumental jams – this playlist is all about the feels. Curated around my first single “Night In China”, this lineup has both an exciting yet sensual quality. The songs on here are cinematic and always bring me into a story, a mood, or a memory. I am constantly growing, learning, and discovering in my own music, but I always find myself coming back to this playlist. My sister and I add to it constantly so definitely continue to check it out – and let it take you place.

june 2019: new videos, no holds barred

june 2019: new videos, no holds barred

Alright. You all know what we do around here by now. Mid-month, we release genre-inclusive soundtrack features that are jam packed with new music videos specifically for your viewing pleasure. We know that people exist in the world that curate playlists to evoke a specific emotion, or to bring people back to a specific point in time.

These soundtrack pieces are not specific. These soundtrack pieces will jump from hip hop to indie rock to alternative to gospel and back again, and there’s not much we’re truly willing to do about it. Because, as the month’s cause would suggest, love is love. Music is music.

Bring me everything new, no holds barred!

Check back all month for new music videos throughout the end of June 2019!
