The Top One Percenters Playlist Vol 34

I took a break from creating and posting music playlists on IG for #BLM. Can't take away from what's important. But mental health is also important, and sometimes you need a distraction and time/space to get out of your own head. Escape life, so to say. So here we have a super-sized Top One Percenters Playlist Volume 34. As always, an eclectic mix of indie pop, dance, rap and r&b. 

You may be tired of hearing "Savage" but Major Lazer did a dope fucking club remix that makes the record sound brand new. There's new records from The Neptunes and Deadmou5 ("Pomegranate"), Jamie XX-style tracks like The 1975's Shiny Collarbone (I swore it was Jamie XX when I first heard it), newer artists like Rina Sawayama ("Love Me 4 Me"), Sofia Hoss ("Where Did You Go"), Molly Moore ("Handsomer"), and the usual collective of banging fucking music. 

Remember Baauer and "Harlem Shake"? He recently released a new album, and the standout track "REACHUPDONTSTOP" is included here. I bought some club speakers and I can't wait to bang that shit loud as fuck on em. 

There's something for everyone, I promise. Playlist below, tracklist after the jump, and link here for Vol 33.

The Top One Percenters Playlist: Volume 30

CORONAVIIIIIRUS (Cardi B voice). Life is wild, aint it? You think you're doing well, that the fam is doing well, that you've got health, a good job, some money in the bank; You think your investments are sound and (relatively) safe; That you're set up (relatively) well for the future. But life comes at you fast (Kevin Federline would know), just this time, it's coming at everyone at the same time at (largely) the same rate. 

It felt like it was time to make another playlist - it's new music Friday after all (wait, it's only Monday? The days run together when you're inside everyday). It's been much longer than it should've been, and there's so much music to share that I'm breaking them up into two playlists - Volume 30, which is rap, trap and harder electronic, and Volume 31, which will be pop, indie pop, dance, etc. Volume 31 will come later this week, so be on the lookout. As always, check out Volume 29 and all previous playlists here. Spotify playlist below and tracklist after the jump.

Baauer - Kung Fu ft. Pusha T & Future

I really, really dislike Future. But I really, really like this song. Baauer creates the perfect blend of rap and electronic/grime for the "Kung Fu" instrumental, and it makes me wish he'd produce rap exclusively. Pusha T is on his cocaine flow, like normal, and like normal, it's generally outstanding.

Baauer's debut album Aa, is out tomorrow, March 18.

Song of the Day: AlunaGeorge - Attracting Flies (Baauer Remix)

I'm slowly, but surely, becoming a big fan of AlunaGeorge. There's 'You Know You Like It' and 'White Noise' by Disclosure ft. AlunaGeorge, both of which took a while to grow on me. Their new song, 'Attracting Flies', gets the remix treatment courtesy of the 'Harlem Shake' master, Baauer. And it's pretty much weekend fire.

The Top One Percenters Mixtape: Volume 19

Originally compiled December 2014. Hit the jump to hear the goods. I'll try to add Spotify/YouTube/Soundcloud playlists of all the songs moving forward
