It might be Tuesday, but for me (and probably for many of you too), this playlist feels like Sunday.
Because really — what better day for sunscreen, oversized sunglasses, a book… or a good playlist by the pool? Whether it is a beach club or just the pool downstairs in your building, the setting almost doesn’t matter.
So, what is inside?
Warm, analogue-leaning sounds throughout. Mr. Fingers brings in those classic Chicago house grooves — the kind that feel like sun on your skin. Flabaire adds a soft, coastal, almost Ibiza-like ease. And CFCF leans into something more atmospheric and slightly abstract.
It is the kind of soundtrack that sets the tone for the week ahead. A small mood lift before everything starts again.
