Summer Tunes 2014

Summer is all about the feel-good factor and positivity and one thing that can make us happy is music. Whether you are planning a beach party, BBQ or just having sometime to yourself we all need a bit of music to get us in the mood. Below are some hits that I will be playing all summer long and I suggest you do too!

This song is a necessary for all summer playlists, The title of the song suggests it all really..  DJ Calvin Harris has added his vocals to new track Summer which is perfect for any summer party and is definitely got the feel-good factor.

This song by Sigma is a remix of a sample used in Bound 2 by Kanye West and this has to be one of my favorite tunes at the moment. I am not much of a Kayne fan so Bound 2 does not really appeal to me however the intro is pretty good and UK group Sigma jumped on that bandwagon and created a remix of the ‘good bit’ and I must say in my opinion its far superior to Bound 2 and works a lot better.  This is worth a listen!

And Calvin Harris has also been busy on this song too, he wrote and produced I will never let you down for girlfriend Rita Ora and its a catchy number perfect for summer.. and oh how I am loving the pink trench coat!

And last but not least is the very talented singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran who is back with his first single of his new album ‘multiply’ which is fab btw! Sing is quite different for Ed with a Justin Timberlake-esque style to it which is down to Pharrell who produced the track however it still has Ed written all over it and its incredibly catchy!

Summer is pretty much here and one thing we all look forward to is beach parties and BBQs all complete with the perfect summer playlist. Below I have put together a little collection of songs that will definitely be on my playlist this summer.

One of my favorite tracks this year has been the collaboration between Robin Thicke, Pharrell and T.I with their Number 1 hit Blurred Lines. The video may have cause some controversy but there is no denying that this song is extremely catchy and enough to put anyone in a good dancing mood.

One of the best feelings of summer is the feeling of freedom and time to relax and do whatever you want with your friends (well nothing too rebellious) and this song nails this to a T! I Love It by Icona Pop featuring Charli XCX is another hit for your playlist this summer and is something you will be singing along to in no time!

After making the chart hit ‘Thrift Shop’ the duo Macklemore and Ryan Lewis are back again with hit ‘Can’t hold us’ which proves to be a hot hit this summer. This catchy tune will be a must for the dance floors wherever you are in the world and is sure to be a summer party hit!

And the final addition to my Summer playlist is the feel-good hit ‘Get Lucky’ by Daft Punk feat Pharrell. This hit has been huge so far and will be even bigger when the sun starts to hit and the parties begin. This song is a MUST for all summer playlists so get it on yours now!
