I just spent the last five days in sunny Miami for the Winter Music Shitshow and all I need to battle these intense warm weather withdrawals is this dope summertime mix from DJ Impulse. ”Sun In My Eyes” is some real, roll down the windows and let the warm breeze flow, kinda mix you’re gonna need to kick off the warm weather seasons.
I’m pretty sure Impulse had his summer toes out while he was makin’ this mix. ”Sun In My Eyes” coasts through a summertime stroll through some of the coolest tracks, from De La Soul, Mayer Hawthorne, Treasure Fingers, Marvin Gaye, and Solidisco. With genres ranging from electro, club, moombahton, hip hop, and disco, this one covers all the bases. ”Sun In My Eyes” is all about good vibes so make sure you’re collectin’ ‘em here!
Trust the homie! Impulse wouldn’t be puttin’ together just a random mix of tunes. He’s practically been DJing out of the womb. Not only has he opened and DJ’d for hip hop artists like Wutang, De La Soul, and Mos Def, but he also works for the Scratch DJ Academy and is affiliated with the Skratch Makaniks crew. He’s rockin’ with some of the coolest DJing skills I’ve seen and his broad knowledge of music is impeccable. Co-signed.
