If you’re an American, this is a pretty big weekend. Memorial Day is often regarded as the official “start” to the summer season, and judging by the number of cookouts and pool parties set to happen this weekend, the tradition continues. It also means an extra day off of work, something that everyone likes. As far as I know, the site won’t really be taking Memorial Day Monday off, but I might call a last minute audible on that one. We’ll have to wait and see. But no matter what country you’re from, I hope the weather’s nice by you. Maybe have some friends or family over for good food and conversation? Sounds like a plan to me. Here are some mp3s to get you through it. I’ll recommend tracks from Alberta Cross, AVAN LAVA, Infernal Devices, The Mynabirds, The Spy From Cairo, Woodpecker and The Darcys remix of Zulu Winter. In the Soundcloud section you’ll want to stream tracks from Metric, Onra, SBTRKT and Ski Lodge.
