Disclosure say: “The clubs might be closed and the festivals postponed but our Disclosure Summer Sessions playlist gives you a taste of what we’d be playing to soundtrack your summer. Hope you enjoy.”
Aluna says: “These are my summertime jams, perfect for a slow bump and grind holding a cold drink in one hand and an ice cream in the other.”

Sofi Tukker say: “Some of our favourite tracks to play during our 100+ days of daily livestreams. If you’re not dancing to these, Tucker doesn’t know you. Freak fam, stand up!”
