Songs of the Week 192: December 2 – December 8

kaytranada#5. Kaytranada Feat. Shay Lia – Chances

The man with infinite beats released another couple tracks that are both filthy. Everything Kaytranada touches these days is brilliant.


sam fender#4. Sam Fender – That Sound

This guy gives me some major The Boxer Rebellion vibes (which reminds me… I should check up on what those boys are doing these days), which is the highest of compliments.


b00ty#3. B00ty – Good For It

I expect many more releases from these guys to grace the blog’s pages in the next year or two. Groovy, feel-good dance music is right up my alley.


lover#2. Lover – Best Side

Layered vocals is my new jam. Add some strings in and I’m completely hooked.


cold war kids#1. Cold War Kids – Goodnight Tennessee

I’m working through a major music-post backlog. I have enough tracks already queued up for the rest of the month. That said, I had to include Goodnight Tennessee in this week’s recap (despite only hearing it for the first time last week). It’s Cold War Kids at their finest. Despite being released way back in 2011, it got a re-release on the Kids’ album this past week and made me realize that I needed to go back and re-listen to their entire discography to make sure I haven’t missed out on any other great tracks.
