jai wolf//indian summer

slumdog + summer synth

I’m really into this song, even though I’m not sure whether or not it’s a little bit offensive, or something. This dude, Jai Wolf, just kind of appeared on the scene and it seems like no one really knows much about him, except for that he comes from the same family of folks who curated ODESZA. Obviously he has some India-centric focus, and it’s clear that this song is some sort of exemplary track for his style: it’s got the perfect sample, the perfect build-up, and he dropped it at the perfect (read: sweatiest) time of summer.

I can’t stop listening to this song, and I can’t really pinpoint why. Maybe you can. Something about it is momentous and, for lack of a better word, a little #inspiring. It makes me want to go on a run, or something, which is arguably my least favorite activity on this Earth. So that’s saying a lot.
