The days are getting shorter, the mornings cooler, and just like that, October is upon us friends! To celebrate we have brought you a pumpkin DIY, a perfectly spiced apple cake, and the cherry on top is a new playlist from the one and only, Matt Mugford. (Matt, by the way, is on baby watch. His wife Beth is due to have their son any day now!) Having trouble listening? Click here.
St. Lucia - Elevate
I guess technically it's fall...but I'm still kind of hanging on to the summer. It's also still 80 degrees in LA sooo yeah.
Lucius - Don't Just Sit There
Great band from Brooklyn.
The Killers ft. M83 - Shot At The Night
I mean, The Killers and M83? I want a whole album of this.
HAIM - If I Could Change Your Mind
New album just came out and it might be my favorite of the year. Seriously. Get it.
Volcano Choir - Byegone
Justin Vernon's (Bon Iver) side gig...besides singing on Kanye tracks.
Haerts - Wings
Nice little poppy jam.
Kings Of Leon - Beautiful War
I don't put songs on repeat very often, but this is one of them. Can't stop listening to it.
Butch Walker - Let It Go Where It's Supposed To
Amazing songwriter. Some of his best stuff.
Amy Stroup - Falling
Lykke Li, anyone?
Coldplay - Atlas
Sounds like it could have been on A Rush Of Blood To The Head...and that is a very good thing in my book (btw: I do not have a book)
The Paper Kites - Young
So many simple layers and great moments hidden within this song. Listen close and you might even hear a triangle.
Jaymes Young - Dark Star
Chill out, guys.
The 1975 - Girls
Just for fun.
