Don’t Half Love Me, Love Me All The Way
18 tracks on the Better Spins playlist this week. Some highlights:
- Gesaffelstein (ft. Pharrell Williams) – Blast Off. The same beautiful marriage of electronic production, funk, and hip hop that we normally associate with Daft Punk is on full display here.
- O.A.R. – Tragedy in Waiting. “I’ve got a mind that wanders off in search of something and I’m gonna get there.”
- DJ Seinfeld – U. Weird. Intimate.
- Armin van Buuren – Revolution. Showing once again why he is the trance GOAT.
- LA Riots – House Philosophy. It’s not often that Spotify can capture the essence of house music in a single track.
- Kygo, Whitney Houston – Higher Love. The original diva and the pride of Norway team up to…remix Steve Winwood? @ewowski & I discuss first impressions:

Honorable Mentions
- Jimmy Barnes, Tina Turner – (Simply) the Best. It’s not John Cusack holding a boombox over his head, but Schitt’s Creek knows how to score a big romantic gesture. Oh my god, David. So cute.
- Dreamville with JID & EARTHGANG (ft. Buddy & Guapdad 4000) – Wells Fargo. Playground Pick from Louis the Child’s Playground Radio #34.
- Adam Levine – Lost Stars. This feels like the time I accidentally enjoyed a Train track, but despite how much Adam Levine may irritate me as a person, I’ll always give credit where credit is due.
