Summer is in full swing, and it’s time to forget about those tepid tunes cluttering your playlist, turn up the volume and feel the heat! I searched what the world had to offer to bring you the freshest, most sizzling summer songs of July 2024.
Dove Scappi - Trama
Summer 2024 is going to be THE summer to get your Reggae on, and I recommend starting off with Trama’s latest album, Salmastro! Dove Scappi is the album’s first single, an especially dancey summer song with some of that classic reggae and hip-hop vibes.
Give it a listen if you’re a fan of the genre and share what you think of it!

Truly - Saritah
Saritah, a talented Australian artist with soft vocals, has blessed her fans with a new reggae-fusion summer bop called Truly. The artist’s positive vibes practically glow within the song’s lyrics and flow.
It’s the third single from her upcoming album called Gift, a feel-good summer collection for those days when you need a reminder that we only live once so better enjoy every moment we have!

Everyday - Cornell C.C. Carter
Everyday is a beautiful inspirational and uplifting new song by Cornell C.C. Carter, a talented artist from California (whose birthday was only a few days ago)! This single is a breath of fresh air all of us could probably use this summer.
Cornell C.C. Carter is an R&B wordsmith who sings of celebrating life’s simple joys and accepting it as it is. The artist’s smooth vocals give us a timely reminder to savor our moments.
It's the perfect soundtrack for those lazy summer days when you just want to soak up the sunshine and appreciate the little things. Give it a spin and tell us what you think!

Fairytale - Dreams on Earth
Fairytale is a dreamy single from Dreams on Earth’s debut project album, BALLADS OF A SUNSEEKER, a raw and personal song that touches on several subgenres like synth and rap, but mostly Lofi bedroom pop.
Expect a blend of heartfelt lyrics, DIY aesthetics, and experimental tunes. It's the perfect soundtrack for those quiet moments when you want to lose yourself in a world of imagination, late-night summer musings, or warm and hazy afternoons.

I Am Love - Cecily
Cecily's I Am Love, part of her upcoming album called Awakening Pt. II, is pure sunshine in your ears. Cecily's got me daydreaming about endless summer days when I used to be young and in love with a melody as sweet as honey and a voice to match.
It's the kind of song that makes you want to twirl in a field of daisies and believe in happily ever afters!

Summer Jam / Back For More - Atomphunk starring Mugs and Pockets Featuring DJ Deviant
It’s time to present THE track of summer 2024, courtesy of Manchester's Atomphunk and Seattle duo Mugs & Pockets, with the magic touch of DJ Deviant on the cuts.
The trio has come together to craft a 4-minute-long funk slash hip-hop summer jam (literally) you’re going to have on repeat at your parties. It can also bring the party to your bedroom if you play it loud enough!
Although you can pre-order it now, the song will officially be released by August 2024. You can still check it out for free on Bandcamp!

Encore une fois feat. Samantha Mercano - OC Rules
Encore une fois is a smooth neo-soul jam that deserves a place on your summer playlist if you’re a fan of some good old Jazz and R&B. Samantha Mercano’s sweet vocals are the first thing you hear once you hit play, making this single more memorable on the band’s latest home-recorded project, AMO URBA - Home Session.
Set the mood for a romantic summer night with Encore une fois. Light some candles, pour a glass of wine, and slow dance with your special someone (or your pet, no judgment)!
Let us know in the comments what summer evening vibes this song gives you!

VITA BOHÉMIEN Reimagined - Malakiia
VITA BOHÉMIEN opens beautifully with guitar and sax notes accompanying Malakiia's soft vocals, a lovely blend of R&B, soul, and neo-soul for the ears.
Malakiia is a French artist who sings of breaking free from their cycle of doubt and insecurity in this single.
There’s a refreshing sort of sadness in her voice, a feeling I often associate with sombre summer days when the world just weighs too heavy on my shoulders. I love the vibes about this one and have been playing it on repeat for a while now, so I recommend you give it a listen!

Never Impress - Swiftumz
Never Impress is a chill-down Indie-Pop single by Swiftumz that’s got that classic, laid-back vibe down pat. The whole album does, in fact, and it’s summery in a way that makes you want to grab a beer and lay back in the sun.
I personally would love to hear Swiftumz perform live this summer, and if you do too, get in touch with them through one of the platforms below.
