This Week's Playlist #22 - The Bank Holiday edition (+ another a heavy metal bonus)
Week #22 - The Bank Holiday edition + a heavy metal treat
TL;DR: I'm running a weekly newsletter with 5 songs and a short description, and a matching Spotify playlist if you want to subscribe.
For the non-Spotify readers, there is a Youtube link for each of the songs on the cover.
Week 22!
Hello everyone.
London’s finally sunny, and the whole city turned into a giant street party, covered with Union Jacks everywhere celebrating our lovely Queen :-)
Perfect call for a non-topical selection of the week with 5 songs you would play for your weekend barbecue! Have a good weekend everyone :-)
And as a special treat, 3 more (random) songs from my heavy metal rotation at the bottom of this email.

Sublime - Doin' Time
The Gershwin classic, covered in the pure reggae Sublime way (then got covered again by another unknown pop star :-))

Blood Orange - I Know
I discovered this very recently. Some experimental but still chilled electronic / R&B music.

Gramatik - Just Jammin`
Some more chilled out music here

Hidden Orchestra - Spoken
Another new discover for me, another one man band piece with a very interesting mix of different styles. Somewhere between the post-rave/techno instrumental music and instrumental jazz

The new album is F*** good!
