Download Chester French Mixtape

ArjanWrites friends Chester French have put together a mixtape of soulful and poppy gems to celebrate the brand-new year. D.A. and Max continue their tradition of compiling the tracks they found most inspiring this year. It is most definitely a year to reminder for the Harvard duo with lots of milestones. From their debut at SXSW to the nomination for the MTV ArjanWrites Award, and from the release of their first EP to their collaboration with Pharrell and Common.

I love the eclectic selection on this mixtape. It is clear these guys have a penchant for classic pop,  soulful grooves and timeless songwriter. Included on the mixtape are:

Squeeze "Take Me, I'm Yours"
Marc Bolan "Metal Guru"
Cartola "Preciso Me Econtrar"
Nina Simone "Sunday In Savannah"
George Harrison "Art of Dying"
Hugh Masekela "The Boy's Doing It"
Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazlewood "Some Velvet Morning"
Steel Pulse "Your House"
Makonde "Manzara"
The Move "The Words of Aaron"
Alliyah "I Care 4 U"
Ennio Morricone "La Bambola"
Graham Nash "Chicago"
Myra Barnes "The Message from the Soul Sisters"
