Jun 27, 2016

Drake feat. Kyla and WizKid - One Dance

With it's sweet summery reggae beat and mellow groove, Drake's "One Dance" is bound to be on every summer playlist in 2016.

Calvin Harris feat. Rihanna - This is What You Came For 

Like almost every song Calvin Harris puts out, "This is What You Came For" is a classic summer club banger, great for when you want to get people dancing, and of course it's not a summer mix unless our favorite Barbados beauty Rihanna is on it!

 

Sia feat. Sean Paul - Cheap Thrills 

One of the best parts of summer is that almost all the fun stuff is free (or close to it!) It's all about having fun with friends, enjoying the sunshine and loving the time off school. "Cheap Thrills" fits right in on this list. Did we mention that Sean Paul (an unofficial King of summer jams) is on the track too?

 

Beyoncé - Hold Up

There's no doubt about it, Caribbean and reggae beats have made a huge comeback on the charts this year, and Queen Bey's "Hold Up" is the perfect example. A great jam with lots of emotional power that still makes you feel like you're chilling by the beach in a hammock.

DNCE - Cake By the Ocean

"Cake by the Ocean" is a perfect summer song, and not just because the word ocean is in it! It's got all the elements of a crowd pleaser, and people love to sing along to it!

 

Justin Timberlake - Can't Stop the Feeling

Justin's new jam is a throwback to old school Michael Jackson, and dwells on the sunnier side of life. This fun soul-inspired song for the Trolls soundtrack is going to be playing at BBQs and picnics everywhere this summer.

 

Troye Sivan - Youth  

Aussie-South African teen Troye Sivan surprised everyone this year with his hit song "Youth," and we're pretty sure no one sick of it yet. It's fun, romantic and upbeat - who doesn't want that on their summer playlist?

 

The Chainsmokers - Don't Let Me Down ft. Daya

The Chainsmokers have made the perfect summer roadtrip song with "Don't Let Me Down," - and seems like they know it based on the start of the music video! Get ready to ride with the top down when you're pumping this one up!

 

twenty one pilots - Ride 

twenty one pilots takes the reggae beat that's so hot this year and makes it a little more rock n' roll with "Ride," but its the perfect wind-down song for your summer mix.
