Happy weekend everybody! Hopefully you’re all cutting loose and enjoying these hot summer nights! If not, here’s a tune to help from Montreal electrofunk duo Chromeo featuring Beyonce’s lil’sis Solange Knowles! Warning: This music video might get you pregnant… Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Chromeo just can’t be controlled. Not familiar with their amazing disco dance tracks? Let me introduce you! “P-Thugg” is the pimp on keyboards, synthesizers, and talk box. “Dave 1” is that dashing fellow singing and playing guitar. He also teaches French classes. Together, they are Chromeo. And Chromeo = Good times. “When The Night Falls” is the fourth single off their third album Business Casual, which is jam packed with jams to party to. You can follow them on Twitter here, and you can check out their tour dates here. They hit up Toronto in November and I highly recommend you be there. Enjoy! xo Kate

Wake-y wake-y eggs and bacon-y! Sleepy? Tired? Hurting? If you’re need of a music video to ease you into the day. Here’s some “Baby’s Arms” by Kurt Vile for you to listen to as your coffee brews. Kurt Vile is a Philadelphia boy who’s latest album Smoke Ring For My Halo is stirring up buzz. He plays Toronto at Lee’s Palace this Wednesday. He’ll also be playing Chicago’s Pitchfork Music Festival this weekend! And guess who’s going?! Me! I’m quite excited. In other news, I’m now taking applications for adorable skater dude boyfriends. Enjoy the tune and have a good week! xo Kate

It’s officially summer! Go find a sunny row of garages and dance while Shad rhymes about good times! He rocked The Ballroom during Rock with Windows last Saturday and tore it up! Did you hear that he rapped over The Cure? Yeah. It was the best. If you’ve never seen Shad live, make the effort to check him out next time he comes to your town. The guy is an amazing performer with talent to the sky. Just watch him freestyle. So good right? Not to mention the fact that I got to meet the guy and he’s the nicest. So enjoy this track as you sip on some lemonade and smile in the sunshine! xo Kate

In honour of this windy warm weekend, here’s some Bon Iver to drift away to… Wouldn’t it be splendid to be walking around Paris and stumble into this? So lovely! New to Bon Iver? Well let me help. Here’s the Bon Iver breakdown. That handsome singer-songwriter fronting Bon Iver is Justin Vernon “For Emma, Forever Ago” is not only the name of the song above, but name of Bon Iver’s debut album from 2008 Most of the record was written over three months spent in a remote cabin in Northwestern Wisconsin – after a breakup! Recognize that voice? Kanye West sampled “Woods” for “Lost In This World” and got Justin Vernon to contributed vocals for his lasted release “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” Bon Iver’s second album (titled “Bon Iver”) comes out June 21st, but until then you can stream the entire new album here! I recommend you do so, alongside some tea and a cozy blanket during the next thunderstorm. Enjoy! xo Kate
