If you’re anything like us, your summers are marked with a particular song or album that carries on as a reminder of those warm nights and carefree days.
Here’s what the Joe Fresh® team is listening to right now (who knows, maybe we’ll inspire your new summer anthem!):
“Lotus Flower by Radiohead. The soothing melodies are a great start to summer and the orchestration is great for patio listening! “ – Kelly, PR
“Hello by Martin Solveig and Dragonette. I’ve been hooked since it played at our fashion show!” – Maria, Admin
“Adele! Her voice is so unique and powerful, it’s like nothing I’ve ever heard before.” –Rochelle, Merchant
“I saw the movie “The American” in a hotel room in Turkey, and heard the original of Americano in the background in one scene: Tu vuo’ fa l’americano by Renato Carosone. It’s such a guilty pleasure to find that a song I like has an original version that is so much better. I play it non-stop.” – DJ Floh Back, Joe Fresh fashion show DJ
“Neil Young – Le Noise, just Neil and his guitar…it’s awesome.” – Christopher, Planning
“I’m feeling Australia right now with two Aussie bands: The Temper Trap and Angus & Julia Stone.” – Spardha, Marketing
“I always have a few songs that I constantly have on repeat. Right now my faves are 40 Day Dream by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, it’s a great song for blaring while driving with the windows down; Groove Me by King Floyd who is a soul singer from New Orleans from the 70’s; and Royal Blue by Cold War Kids – there’s an amazing guitar solo that leaves me dreaming of outdoor music festivals.” – Katie, PR
“I’m listening to older mash up stuff right now…I like Nouvelle Vague and Bossa ‘n Roses.” – Leah, Merchant
“My favourite song right now is Pumped up Kicks by Foster the People – it’s a catchy feel-good song!”– Meghan, Visuals
“On hot days like this it’s a lot of reggae like Bob Marley and Peter Tosh; everyone loves those guys.” – Mike, Office Services
“I’ve been listening to the new Jessie J album a lot this summer! I love her voice and the lyrics are about things that every girl can relate to like heartbreak and insecurities but she’s also got some great getting-ready-to-go-out stuff!” Sonya, Design
“I’m waiting for the new Nicola Roberts song Beat of my Drum to be released here – it’s such a fun, upbeat summer tune.” – Alison, PR
Happy listening!
