What’s your go-to “the weather is getting warm” album?

Isolation, to me, conjures the feeling of the summer between high school and college, when it seemed that I lived in a Hawaiian shirt and Vans and spent my days walking between friends’ houses in my hometown. This is especially impressive considering Kali Uchis’ debut album didn’t even exist when I was doing those things, but it carries the promise that more days like that could impossibly come. The bassy bossa of “Your Teeth In My Neck” is the soundtrack of a flirtatious summer job, while “Just A Stranger” is the party you have with some cash freshly in your pocket. Isolation somehow wormed its way into my nostalgia with its frenzy and its languor—its heat, frankly. [Drew Gillis]
