In the weeks leading up to Coachella, PEOPLE is bringing readers 10 brand new light and airy tunes that are sure to liven things up – regardless of rain or shine.
Karen Marie Ørsted, better known as MØ, is a 25-year-old Denmark sensation who just released her debut studio album, No Mythologies to Follow, in March but has already taken American critics by storm with her powerful vocals and dreamy melodies. With a voice sounding something of a cross between Lana Del Rey, Lorde and Florence Welch, the singer particularly stands out on "Pilgrim," as well as "Slow Love," a sexy, mellow track that a person can imagine hearing while floating on a cloud.
Tensnake, the German house music maven who we've included in a previous playlist, just released his first full-length album, Glow, last month. The diverse mix of dance tracks does just what the compilation's title suggests, and particularly shines with "Good Enough to Keep" and "No Relief."
L.A.-based DWNTWN had us at hello with their 2012 indie hit "Look the Other Way," and now the electronic pop act is back with the easy, breezy track, "Til Tomorrow."
The Knocks also made it to the list again, after we featured two of their songs last month. The upbeat "Dreaming" from their Comfortable EP is an instant mood-enhancer.
Check out the songs above and a few others we are feeling this month by listening to our full playlist below. Anything we're missing? Let us know in the comments!
