The Pool: Jamaica Running (Poolside Edit)

Sinkane’s “How We Be,” Poolside resurrects The Pool, Polygrains’ debut and more in the music we tweeted this week

LA-based duo Poolside—who got their name from the fact they used to record in a pool house—resurrect an obscure ’80s track and spin it into summer dance party heaven with their edit of “Jamaica Running.” Originally created by Austin-based drummer Patrick Keel, a one-man-band who produced under the moniker The Pool, the song’s laid-back bongo beat is given added depth and a faster pace from the pair, who include it on their recently released mixtape, “Stir It Up.”
