Cub Sport: Music That Hits Deep

Cub Sport: Music That Hits Deep

“This playlist is deep cuts that hit deep,” Cub Sport’s Tim Nelson tells Apple Music. Nelson describes this carefully selected playlist, made in honour of Pride, as a “semi-melancholic and nostalgic mix of songs of all different genres that feel tender and beautiful in their own way.” What’s more, the Brisbane artist has gone so far as to curate the order of the songs—he recommends listening to it from the top, while you’re “walking through your neighbourhood with headphones on, sitting by the ocean, on a plane or train.” Read on for more on some of his selections. Oneohtrix Point Never, “A Barely Lit Path” “This is one of the most spectacular pieces of music I’ve ever heard. It’s a very special journey of a song, full of life and spirit. Highly suggest listening with undivided attention.” Charli XCX, “party 4 u” “Still one of my fave Charli songs ever. The verses in this song are virtuosic pop. Especially the part that starts at 1:36.” Nick Ward, “Gimme” “Nick is a very special artist with a really exciting, major vision. This is the first single off his debut album and I already feel like he’s doing so much for the culture.” Harry Strange, “Bite the Hand” “We met Harry when he opened for us on our UK tour in 2023, and he’s just such an angel. This song is beautiful. There’s a live performance of it recorded at Abbey Road Studios that’s definitely worth checking out too.” Cub Sport, “Drive” “Still one of my fave Cub Sport songs ever. It feels pure, warm, and timeless to me.”
