Spend an hour in the company of this nourishing DJ mix, assembled by Welsh DJ, producer, songwriter and vocalist Elkka. It’s the kind of listen that often feels tailor-made to accompany bright mornings and first coffees, and features warm, energising tracks by artists including Erykah Badu, Air, André 3000, ODESZA with Julianna Barwick, and Lana Del Rey with SYML. “Re-emerging into 2024 I have been seeking soothing and sensual sounds to help reawaken my desires for the year,” Elkka—real name Emma Kirby—tells Apple Music. “This mix is just a few of the songs I have been drawn to.”
