Is there really a sound of summer? Yes, there definitely is.
If you missed our summer playlists filled with candy-sweet altpop & 80s bangers, make sure to check them out on our IG highlights. But as we’re easing into fall, the last long days of the year seem to be slipping through our fingers and nostalgia prematurely sets in. We’re in need of some two-part substance: records that A) are still upbeat enough for Saturday day-brews at the park and B) aren’t so summer that we’ll ditch them come September.
On that note (ba-dum-chhhh), we’ve rounded up our 3 fav records for right now. The ones that came out in early summer but didn’t feel like the exact right fit for the season. And while we feel like we neglected these records when they dropped, today is the exact perfect time to tune in and hit that repeat button.
A sincere thank you to our friends who helped us write the below reviews! Schmutz Berlin, Pass The Aux & Selena Rox.

Boy Harsher’s sophomore album Careful drives its audience from their present physical settings into a completely altered reality. When you close your eyes while these sounds flood your environment, you might find yourself in a dimly lit Berlin nightclub or perhaps you’ll wind up cruising down a deserted road from dusk ‘til dawn; hell, next thing you know you’re the protagonist in your mind’s own thrilling ‘80s stylized film, where you’ve set out to foil your adversary's wicked plans before it’s too late. Become the darkness, float through time and space with these simple yet dynamic beats accompanied by breathy ambient air which will bring you to a fresh cinematic reality. You’ll find comfort in the sonic textures of this dark, electropop experience. Matthews’ vocals guide you through this lonesome atmosphere while Muller’s synths and beats carry your body through the darkness.

The once maximalist maestro of Animal Collective, Noah Lennox aka Panda Bear, has taken a more minimalist approach on his fourth album, Buoys. From the first unfolding of Buoys the seasoned Animal Collective listener will notice a more organic mood blossoming from this new garden tended by Panda Bear.
The first few seconds of opening track “Dolphin” seem to turn down the noise of past projects and introduce a repetitive drop of water that ties the manipulated acoustic guitar closely together with Panda Bear’s newfound clarity of voice. A Panda Bear we’ve not seen before; standing alone with nothing that isn’t needed to let the track unfold as it should.
For those longing for the golden years of Animal Collective, dry your tears with “Token” and “Crescendo”. Sunny guitars and electronics reminiscent of Sung Tongs interwoven with vocal arrangements not unlike Panda Bear’s exquisite Person Pitch.
Buoys doesn't rush itself, the mood of the album flows from one atmosphere to another, exploring expansive textures that are at once fresh and new but familiar, belonging to the Animal Collective and Panda Bear families. Though Buoys is at once an ode to singularity, it is also the perfect companion to a freshly blossoming season.

Good things come to those who wait. That's the thought I arrived at after listening to the first solo album in almost five years from indie rock queen Jenny Lewis. On the Line dropped Mar. 22 via Warner Bros. and Lewis brought out the big guns for her studio band. Ringo Starr, Beck, Benmont Tench, Jim Keltner, and Don Was backed Lewis up on what might be her strongest solo effort to date. It's a piano-heavy record that captures the rawness of the former Rilo Kiley frontwoman's songwriting. "Heads Gonna Roll" is one of many standout tracks with a nostalgic rolling piano line that sets up the powerful chorus perfectly. The album feels like Lewis working through being single for the first time after a decade-plus long relationship with her former songwriting partner Johnathan Rice. Lewis once said wine and weed is all you need, and she managed to create an album that pairs wonderfully with both.

Hello everyone, my name is Marvelyn Evans. For quite some time, My husband was living in another apartment due to work pressure and we were very much happy together even though he stayed apart from us for some months. Little did i know a colleague from work was already having an affair with him which made my husband file a divorce against me out of nowhere. I knew something was wrong because we never had to fight or argue that much to make him leave. I was traumatized and i search for help to tackle the situation which led me to DR ISIKOLO from praises people showered on him online. We discussed at length and he told everything I needed to know about what happened and the due process to fix the problems. He fulfilled his promises and got my husband back to me and the divorce process was canceled. Now my husband is back home to us and we are happy together. Its indeed amazing how people can genuinely help other people when they are in need. He can help you too. Just text him via WhatsApp +2348133261196 or email him via: isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com
No one else can help you fix your relationship and love problems better than Dr Isikolo
It will amaze you to know that everything so many people have been testifying about DR ISIKOLO is nothing but the truth. My husband left me and my kids because we had so many fights and arguments. His people were also against my marriage with him. I loved him so much and had great hope that we will build a bright future together. I waited for 6 months and he never returned back to me. So i had to contact DR ISIKOLO who did everything in his power to reunite us and restore the love and happiness we once shared. He returned back home to us after 48 hours just as DR ISIKOLO assured me. You too can get this great help and live to be grateful to him because he never disappoints anyone. contact Him email: isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com and you can also WhatsApp him on +2348133261196.
