🎵 The July challenge overview
July is a month of summer trips, long bike journeys and, in general, dozens of opportunities to listen to music. Everyone's got their own taste, and we though it would be fun to ask the Community members to build a large Summer Playlist together. A track perfect for a morning jog? Share it! For work? For making everyday commuting smoother? Or simply those you can't get enough of? We would love to hear them all!
Curious of already shared tracks? Take a look at the "Community DJ Challenge"!
🌟 19 answers submitted so far
