A little chillwave surf guitar, a little vocal like singing through an intercom, a little whistling – one percolating cool breeze of a song, as easy as ice coffee, as wide open as uneven brownstone roofs, the infinite spread of summertime in the city. Foster The People and “Pumped Up Kicks” goes down like a cold beer, refreshing to the point where all you want is another.

This has been my jam for the last month! Once it’s inevitably used in Gossip Girl (or some other equivalent TV show) I think it’s going to blow up.
This song popped out in my headphone while waiting for the train/subway. I was like… yea…. I can dig this.
Summer Jam of the week FO SHO
(GOD I HOPE IT’S NOT THE NEXT GOSSIP GIRL TRACK)
I’m also showing props to Tame Impala’s “Solitude Is Bliss”
Summer goodness… loving it

They havent released anything yet, but you can buy Pumped up Kicks on vinyl at your local record store.
