The Spinoff Mix: Yumi Zouma’s ‘Dissipating Summer’

Yumi Zouma mix

Auckland and Brooklyn-based dreamy/electro/synth/pop band Yumi Zoumi bid farewell to summer with an exclusive mix for The Spinoff.

Seasons don’t change much in New Zealand comparative to other places. You could be forgiven for missing the subtle changes in the weather, but you would really have to be trying to miss things if you couldn’t feel the change in energy in New Zealand as autumn arrives.

The start of the year is met with such optimism and, unlike the northern hemisphere, good weather too. The Blackcaps are playing at home which means they’ll beat any team that would pummel them elsewhere. You get up early and you go to bed late. You think about what you were doing last summer, who you were waking up with and the nights you spent. But, like all good things, summer is unpredictable and inevitably ends.

Here’s a mix we put together as half of us bid farewell to summer and the other half are just ramping up.

Be good to one another.
