Playdar: 6 New Songs to Fall in Love with Right Now

This week, G Philly's resident DJ shares his favorite tunes of the moment.

Every Friday, G Philly resident DJ Patrick DeMarco mixes a roundup of tunes to take you into the weekend. This week, he shares some of his newest favorites.

When I started putting together this week’s list, it made me think about how my tastes have changed over time. My love for music started way back in the late ’80s, when I would listen to Casey Kasem and the American Top 40. Each week, I would follow the countdown, record it in a notebook and try to predict where the songs would land on the list the next week. Over time, I like to think that helped me hone my good-music-picking skills. With the songs this week, you will find a mixed bag of genres that have influenced me over the years — from  soul and club to pop and rock.

Before you start listening, I want to take a second to say thanks for checking out my column. I am touched by the positive responses I’ve been getting, and am honored to be putting out music for everyone to enjoy!
