Skream - Summer Time Vibes 2019

The cutting edge of cool Oliver Jones, better known as Skream, just offered up more than an hour of summer tilted tunes. In fact this mix, which he's labelled "Summer Time Vibes 2019," was originally made for a friend in honour of the "glorious weather" but Jones since decided to share it publicly.

While Skream says a tracklist is forthcoming, there are several standouts as to this groovy, 80s disco/house and the like mix. Early on we're welcomed by Yoko Ono's "Walking On Thin Ice" whose bass-line gives me a distinct Steve Miller Band "Abracadabra" vibe. That's followed shortly by a very cool and funky version of The Doobie Brothers "Long Train Running." Later on we're graced with some lively disco in the form of José Martí's ebullient "Viveros." As we get deeper into the mix so do the grooves. Cinthie's cool cruiser "Everything I Say" is followed by K-Hand's killer "Without You." Finally Skream walks off on a win with Lovebirds brilliantly beautiful "Want You In My Soul."

Unfortunately the mix is currently only available for streaming so enjoy it now below.FOLLOW SKREAM: FACEBOOK SOUNDCLOUD TWITTER
