UUnfortunately the summer is coming to an end. Labor Day Weekend is everyone’s last chance to get involved with some summer fun. Just like Memorial Day weekend, people travel to places such as the Hamptons, Las Vegas and the Jersey Shore to get their last rays of sun. Whether you are in the Hamptons, down on the Jersey Shore or anywhere with a backyard, there is one thing you are almost definitely going to do – have a BBQ. Everyone loves a good BBQ and Labor Day Weekend is one of the last chances to do it big.
Besides good marinated meat and cold beer, what else is mandatory at a BBQ? Great music. ADANAI’s 2013 Pool Party Music playlist was meant to get the party started and keep energy levels high. The 2013 BBQ Music playlist has tons of energy but also mixes in several more mellow but fun tracks (e.g., acoustic versions of Avicii’s “I Could Be The One” and Bob Sinclar’s “World, Hold On”). A successful BBQ playlist is one that mixes songs that people know, songs that keep the energy level high (especially important with a belly full of BBQ) and songs that people don’t know but immediately pull out their phones to Shazam.
