This month’s playlist is a throwback to the late '90s and early 2000s: a time when songs lived on burned CDs and summer started with the right mix. It’s the sound of roller rink crushes, road trips without a map, and afternoons that turned into evenings without anyone noticing.

As the season turns, so does the energy — and this month’s playlist leans into all things soulful, funky, and feel-good.

Some are classic, some are unexpected, but all of them hit that emotional frequency that only music can. Perfect for candlelit dinners, cozy nights in, or just driving aimlessly with the volume up.
