Summer is here! I’ve been listening to a lot new music lately that fits right in. Some cheery songs that will make you dance right before you jump in the pool and some more soothing for those rainy days. Enjoy!

Music Mix: Summer Lover

2013 summer mix

I compiled a mix for all the summer lovers out there. I was going for a danceable upbeat mix but somehow ended up with slower, yet fun songs, songs that have been my sunshine in these endless, rainy Miami days.

You know that feeling when you put on your favorite pair of shades? You feel cool, confident and you imagine yourself driving with breeze going through your hair, and enjoying the most perfect view. I made a mix of songs that made me feel that way, so put on your shades, hit play and enjoy <3

Weekly Musiquita: cldscp

Every song in the new release, Ninos Azules from Argentinian duo Cldscp is extremely sweet. Listening to the the whole album can get a little gooey but I’ve got to say that the quirkiness of each song is much appreciated in small doses… almost like chocolate.
