You can check out the four most recent picks below.

CLUB S’AKOÚO
Joana Batemits, Founder + music Supervisor
Artist + Song: Trio Mocoto – “Não Adianta”
“One of the things I love most is how it brings people together. Dancing, singing, sharing a fleeting moment, making a memory, connecting. In a world that can feel so divided, music builds community. This song is a perfect example of that because it was played to me by a friend in the exact setting that I love—a bunch of nerdy music friends sharing their favorite tracks in a studio. It moved me immediately and I find myself going back to it all the time. Music is love. And if you’re not sharing the love, what are even you doing?”

Universal Music
Bridget Perdomo, VP of Creative Sync, REPUBLIC Collective
Artist + Song: KC & The Sunshine Band – “Boogie Shoes”
“Watched an episode of SYTYCD in 2010 and the song just hit different. Not sure if it was the Mandy Moore choreo or just the time and space but it’s now my breaker switch whenever I need to reset.”

McCann N.Y.
Colleen Dahlstrom, Senior Music Producer
Artist + Song: Fugazi – “Waiting Room “
“‘Waiting Room’ might not be a traditionally happy song, but I find the most meaningful joy in hope and motivation. It serves as an anthem to rise above and a reminder to focus on being our best selves. I’ve seen the unifying power of that opening bass hook in a crowd of people—it’s a beautiful thing.”

Artist Publishing Group
Cate Downey, Songwriter
Artist + Song: Billy Joel – “Vienna”
“I remember hearing this song for the first time in middle school falling in love with the writing. I still look back at this song as one of the songs that sparked my dream of becoming a songwriter.”
