I Had My Reasons

Here's a trip-worthy collection just in time for vacation ... The new thing that fired me up (and lent the show a title) is our opener, Silent Rider's ‘I Was a Bomb’. From earlier this year, ‘Oceans’ by We Are Serenades (White Sea Remix) just hangs on in my head regardless of the other things I listen to, so I've put that one on repeat.

Another reason for the show is the J Boogie moombahton remix of that Gotye track ... a welcome new approach for an over-exposed tune (for the record, I kinda like the song but really wish I wasn't carrying the video around in my head; ditto the Silent Rider video.)

On the hunt for big game in the Bringin' it Back category, Neneh Cherry's 1992 'Move With Me' is first among equals, while one of the FRW contributors takes flight with a Phil Collins remix.

Whether you're arriving or departing, there's plenty here to occupy you on the trip, just waiting for you to unpack it.
