Back from the other side of the world with island tunes.

This is an actual picture from my trip. Well, the real thing was less purple. 

Hey bitties and whatever the guy equivalent of bitties is. I'm back bitches! Maybe you didn't notice but my partner in blogging crime, Ms. CM has been holding down the fort for the last week in my absence. Seems like I missed a doozy, White Lies and The Head & The Heart live?! Its a good thing I was in motherf*in Hawaii and not say, Idaho (no offense Ida-hoes) otherwise I would be hella jealous. Luckily I did bring back a taste of the pacific with me, in some jams old and new and a Tuesday island playlist, just.for.you. 

1. John Legend and Reggae = match made in heaven. 'Nuff said.

2. Graffiti 6's "Stare Into The Sun" sounds straight off the Blue Crush soundtrack. I know because I watched Blue Crush last night.

3. Tanlines is a little funky electro meets reggae sort of feel, lots of percussion in "Real Life" makes you want to get native with yo' bad self and "Z" featuring Glasser is a more mellow tune with Glassers pretty ooh's and aah's kind of making you want to sway, or at the very least twirl.

4. Finish that shit off with my favorite song to blast when driving along the beach (how can you resist a meeting of Passion Pit and Cold War Kids, the curiosity!)
