USA TODAY

Ahead of their new album, A Moment Apart, out Friday, Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight of the electronic duo ODESZA — one of our 2017 summer music festival MVPs — share a playlist of favorites with USA TODAY.

Beach Boys – I Know There’s an Answer

The Beach Boys were one of our early musical obsessions. This track in particular highlights the one-of-a-kind vocal work Brian Wilson was able to develop during the writing of one of the best albums ever recorded, Pet Sounds.

Radiohead – Everything in its Right Place

The opening track to an iconic album, and a great example of how masterfully Radiohead can create songs out of experimental sounds and unusual time signatures.

Leon Bridges – Coming Home

One of our favorite up-and-coming artists. Leon captures an amazing amount of raw emotion on this record. We had the pleasure of working with him to record Across the Room for this new album.

M83 – We Own the Sky

No list of ours is complete without a little M83. One of our bigger influences, M83 is the perfect balance of epic synth lines and soaring vocals.

Gorillaz – Clint Eastwood

All-time classic collaboration from one of the most innovative groups ever to record and one of the most underrated rappers. Damon Albarn + Del The Funky Homosapien = perfection

Caribou – Odessa

The first track on one of our all-time favorite albums, Swim. Also a pretty strong factor in how we got our name.

Big Wild –Aftergold

One of the early members of our label, Foreign Family Collective. Aftergold is the perfect example of Big Wild at his very best. He’s also an amazing performer with a must-see live show.

Martha Reeves & The Vandellas – Jimmy Mack

Can’t go wrong with a little Martha to start your day.

Tame Impala – Let It Happen

We’ve been big fans of Kevin Parker since the first Tame Impala EP, and it’s been inspiring to hear how his production has developed from then to now. The guy is a genius.

A$AP Rocky - L$D

Rocky vocals with Danger Mouse production. What’s there to not like? Plus, one of the cooler music videos you may ever watch.
