There are a few artists on this playlist that I am currently obsessed with. For example, The National has seen a lot of playtime on my iPhone and computer. Their new album, “Trouble Will Find Me” is great. I listened to it everyday in France on my 20-minute walk to and from school. Perfect walking music. But I also think that their music is great for summer evenings with the speakers on and maybe a [insert favorite cocktail] in hand. At the same time, music like that can be a little melancholy, so I tried to find a balance with some more upbeat stuff. For example, Fitz and the Tantrums is a band that I just discovered (I know I’m behind on this one). They are very fun and light. And of course, Daft Punk’s new album “Random Access Memories” can’t be left out. I also put in a tune off their older album, “Discovery.” Both songs are great for getting funky in a digital way. Anyway, I’ll let you navigate your way through the rest, but those are some of my highlights. I hope you enjoy the music—happy summer! -Taylor
Does any one else make playlists for different seasons or occasions? It's fun to have music that reminds you of a specific time in your life :) Hope you have a great weekend!
