Take Over the Night
find the secret places where the party and the booze taste better with mert turan
featuring artists like
Tyler, The Creator, Jorja Smith, Mereba, Nos, ThBenj, James Blake, Future, Matt Monday, Blood Orange, Denzel Curry
Night rides, cheap motels, gas stations, low-key parties, take away drinks, complex relationships, suburban heroes, suppressed feelings… This list is for those who reject spending the night home alone. For those who are labeled as outsiders and misfits. I’ll be delivering night time stories not bedtime stories. Be careful you never know what you’re going to hear. The purpose of this list is to find the secret places where the party and the booze taste better.
This is not a genre-based playlist but it’s safe to say that alternative R&B and hip hop will dominate the sound. I love the combination of hot beats with solid rap bars and outstanding lyrics. I want this list to be something so provocative that people feel the energy and react. That’s the thing I seek for the most.

When I was working on building Take Over the Night, Dev Hynes was one of the first artists that came to my mind. I kept listening to his latest, Negro Swan, all the time back then and I really wanted to include one song to the list from the album…
