The Top Five Tracks to Hear This Weekend
We've made your weekend playlist for you so that you can spend more time enjoying yourself.
Johnny Stimson is explaining through music what human men and human girls should do, The Swiss just want to connect and St. Lucia are ready to elevate your entire weekend.
1. 'HUMAN MAN' - JOHNNY STIMSON
Johnny Stimson may not be a name many have heard of yet, but it won't stay that way for long if he keeps making melodies as catchy as this. 'Human Man' is groovy, there is no denying it, and the soulful vocals and hooks that Stimson lays down will have your toes tapping all weekend long.
2. 'WELL ABSOLUTELY' - BODY LANGUAGE
This latest offering from Brooklyn outfit Body Language is feelgood music at its finest. The boisterous vocals and upbeat nature of this synth pop hit make it suitable for all occasions, and if this is anything to go by, be sure to keep an ear out for their upcoming album Grammar, due September 10.
3. 'CONNECT' - THE SWISS
Adelaide duo The Swiss this week dropped the video for their party anthem 'Connect', and it accents the track perfectly. Every beat constructs the next step on the Japanese-animation-themed clip, and you can be sure that every beat will move your feet as soon as you hear it through the stereo. The best part is that you can download it here for free.
4. 'IMPOSSIBLE LIKE YOU' - HOLY HOLY
'Impossible Like You' is an example of excellently constructed modern rock and roll. The vintage '70s sound is perfect for a relaxing Sunday afternoon, as are the haunting vocals that add raw emotion to the newest single from Australian act Holy Holy. Just download it (another freebie), close your eyes and listen on repeat.
5. 'ELEVATE' - ST. LUCIA
Whilst it may not be summer in this hemisphere, this track sure makes us wish that it was. This tropical pop number is a teaser of what to expect of St. Lucia's highly anticipated debut album, When the Night, due to drop in October this year. Whilst you may have to wait a few months for the full offering (and for summer), you can enjoy this track liberally in the meantime — just don't get too immersed and throw on your finest sun-inspired outfit only to catch a cold.
