We love walkable neighborhoods because they transform mundane chores into relaxing, inspiring adventures where you're guaranteed to experience something unexpected. But when you've walked the same street hundreds of times, you stop noticing things. In that case, why not get back into the moment by throwing on your earbuds and marching to a different beat?

This installment of Occasion Vibration is flush with mellow, upbeat grooves that keep you from losing your cool in the swaths of urban humanity. While the tracks range from disco edits to hip hop and from dub to dad rock, they all posses funky urban textures that seem at home on a sunny sidewalk. Relax and let the throwback vibes enhance whatever city journey you find yourself on.
