Toro y Moi - Mirage

July 17, 2017 | Keith

Mirage, so careful now
Too close, you're finding out
Is it me being blind?
Notice that I'm high as a kite
And now I'm pacing too fast to speak
It's me, so fine
I was only looking to be with you now
So take it or leave it, take it or treat it
So high
I dunno why I do this to myself
So high, so high, so high

We flew into Austin this morning, from Miami, and Kerri dropped me straight off at work, ready to rock and roll. Was such a great weekend. Looking forward to another visit. You might be asking what the devil that has to do with today's Most Important. Well, Toro y Moi's new cut, "Mirage", has a funky vibe that feels perfect for art deco, dancing, palm trees, and beaches.

LUXXURY - Feel the Night

July 6, 2017 | Kerri

I can't take it anymore
Got to get up on the floor and move

Taking his sound straight from 1978, Luxxury (aka Blake Robin) has released a couple singles this summer that also, somehow, remind me of 1991 Will Smith (fka Fresh Prince). I've been searching for a new song that reminds me of "Summertime" in an ephemeral way, and I think this is it. Reading up a bit on this L.A. producer/DJ, it sounds like his live sets would really make you dance your cares away. Good times.

Parcels - Overnight

June 30, 2017 | Keith

The minute I was thinking
to hold you back.
The moment I was wishing,
it's overnight.

TGIF! The latest track from Aussie retro-pop band, Parcels, is a perfect cut to get the weekend going and/or your dance party started. If you're into groovy, smooth and well-crafted dance music Parcels has what you're looking for. It's good stuff. Check out "Allaround" and "Older".

I'm writing this on Tuesday night (a TMIS secret, don't tell) from San Francisco, my favorite city, and I'm already thinking about the weekend. Kerri is coming and, fingers-crossed, we're going to do some much-loved shakin' and here's to hoping Parcels is on the playlist.
