Review

“Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1," Calvin Harris’s fifth studio effort, is a dynamic and colorful collection that brilliantly showcases the Scottish DJ and producer's knack for mixing diverse genres. Dropping in 2017, this album boasts a stellar lineup of guest stars, including Frank Ocean, Migos, Schoolboy Q, PartyNextDoor, DRAM, Young Thug, Pharrell Williams, Ariana Grande, Future, Khalid, Travis Scott, Snoop Dogg, John Legend, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, Big Sean, Kehlani, Lil Yachty, and Jessie Reyez. The album oozes a laid-back 1980s boogie vibe, epitomized in tracks like "Slide," "Heatstroke," and "Feels."

Harris’s polished production seamlessly blends each guest’s unique style into a cohesive sound, making the album both sophisticated and fun. Standouts like "Rollin," which marries Future’s Auto-Tuned cadences with Khalid’s expressive voice, and "Faking It," where Kehlani’s silky vocals complement Lil Yachty’s rap flow, show off the producer's versatility. While "Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1" might not revolutionize pop or dance music, it serves up an irresistibly catchy, feel-good atmosphere that's perfect for summertime vibes. This album stands as a shining testament to Harris’s talent for creating infectious, crowd-pleasing anthems. - Karl
