What I've Been Listenting To - Summer 2016

Hey everyone! As much as I hate to admit it, summer is coming to a close soon. This summer has been pretty fun for me (stay reading for some posts on Hawaii) and I hope you all have had a good time. I've also been obsessed with Spotify this summer, so I wanted to share what music I have been listening to this summer.

1. Me Before You soundtrack

This soundtrack contains:
                                         Numb by Max Jury
                                         Happy With Me by HOLYCHILD
                                         Unsteady (Erich Lee Gravity Remix) by X Ambassadors
                                         Til the End by Jesse Ware
                                         The Sound by The 1975
                                         Surprise Yourself by Jack Garratt
                                         Don't Forget About Me by Cloves
                                         Photograph by Ed Sheeran
                                         Not Today by Imagine Dragons

This soundtrack is amazing. My favorites off of it are the songs Not Today, Happy With Me, and Surprise Yourself. I absolutely loved the movie, but the soundtrack has actually been my anthem the whole entire summer. There are some sadder songs because of the plot of the movie, but the upbeat songs are pretty great and always manage to get me into a good mood.

2. Kings of Summer by Ayokay feat Quinn XCII

This song has the same name as a movie called 'Kings of Summer' but there is no affiliation. The song has a nice beat and has an indie/chill sound to it. This song is perfect for nights where you want to listen to some nice, summer-y songs with friends.

3. Francisco by Swim Deep

I feel like I've mentioned this song before (I've definitely mentioned this band) but I can't explain how much I love it. This band can be categorized with bands like the Wombats, and the 1975.

4.  Migraine, House of Gold, and Ride by Twenty One Pilots

Twenty One Pilots might be one of my favorite groups just because they have such a unique sound. Migraine is a song I a lot because it has a catchy beat but also has an underlying meaning which you can take as you want. The other two songs are very different sounding to each other but in all have lovely, talk-worthy lyrics.

5. The Ride Album  by Catfish and the Bottleman

According to Spotify, this band is similiar to the bands Circa Waves, Swim Deep, Arctic Monkeys, The Vaccines, and Wolf Alice. I only started listening to CATB recently and I know this album has had some mixed reviews by long time fans, but honestly I love it.
