THURSDAY TRACK VOL. 10

CHU-HI Hour / (C) 2023 Co. Fliks

Welcome back to another Thursday Track. Nothing like winding down with a great track and a crisp beverage. I wanted to kick off the first one of February with the artist Sainté. I came across him last fall and it’s been nonstop since. The song is titled “Reference” (Single) by Sainté. I highly recommend giving him a listen and checking out his Boiler Room Performance too. It seemed only fitting to pair two of my recent favorites together. The beverage pictured above is called Chu-Hi, which is Japanese Shochu. My favorite brand is Yabai!. If you have any local Japanese markets in your area I definitely suggest heading over and copping some. You won’t be disappointed. So turn those speakers up and pour a nice beverage. Spice up your weeknight a little with something different. Salute!

BEVERAGE: Yabai! (Yuzu Lemon & Grape)

TRACK: “Reference” (Single) by Sainté

THURSDAY TRACK VOL. 9

Mojito Hour / (C) 2023 Co. Fliks

And just like that we’re back. Feels good to finally kick off the first Thursday Track of 2023. Got a wide selection of music coming to you all year long. I wanted to share a song that provides some good motivation to set the tone for the year. I selected “Mission Bay” by Larry June off the album Out The Trunk (2019). He’s probably one of my top 3 artist at the moment. If you already know about Larry June then you’re doing good. I highly recommend giving his albums a run through. You won’t be disappointed. Of course I had to pair this week’s track with an ice cold Mojito. (Listen to more Larry June and you’ll see why.) So kick back with a nice ice cold beverage and relax. Tomorrow is finally the weekend. Salute!

BEVERAGE: Mint Mojito

TRACK: “Mission Bay” by Larry June, Out The Trunk (2019)

THURSDAY TRACK VOL. 8

SALUTE! / (C) 2022 Co. Fliks

Can’t believe this is the last Thursday Track of 2022. What a time it’s been. I wanted to close out this year on a funky dance track to compliment this photo. I was searching through my hard drive and this was one of the first iPhone shots I took at the start of 2022. The perfect beverage to celebrate the start and end of the year. The track I selected is titled “1000 Years From Today (Todd Edwards’ Dub Mix)” by The Beloved. The beat on this one always gets me moving. Definitely a great one to have on in the background or to celebrate. So for this final Thursday of 2022 make it special. Turn up your speakers, move the furniture and pop a nice beverage. Call up your friends or have a little solo dance celebration. You deserve it. Thank you to everyone who gives these tracks a listen each week. Got some new music content coming next month. See you all next week. Salute and Happy New Year!

BEVERAGE OF THE WEEK: Chandon Brut Champagne

TRACK: “1000 Years From Today (Todd Edwards’ Dub Mix) BY: The Beloved

THURSDAY TRACK VOL. 7

Tony’s on the Pier / (C) 2022 Co. Fliks

Finally we’re back for another Thursday Track. One more day then the sweet weekend is upon us. This shot was taken at one of my all-time favorite spots. Truly a classic. One that stands the test of time. The Fire Chief at Tony’s on the Pier is a special drink. Plus you get to keep each glass like little trophy’s of proof. Not for the lighthearted. You only need one or two. Since this is one of my favorites drinks it’s only fitting to pair it with a classic track. This week’s track is titled “The Blast” (ft. Vinia Mojica) by Reflection Eternal off the album Train of Thought. This track has been in constant rotation for as long as I can remember. Definitely a good one anytime of day. So go get yourself a special drink this evening and enjoy this track. It’s about to be the holiday weekend, treat yourself to a little something before the madness. Salute!

Thursday Beverage: Fire Chief

Track: “The Blast” by Reflections Eternal off the album Train of Thought

THURSDAY TRACK VOL. 6

The Local / (C) 2022 Co. Fliks

Ah Thursday… Take a deep breath only one more day. This week’s Thursday Track is a classic for me. I chose the track “Reality Check ft. One Be Lo & Senim Silla” by Binary Star off the album Masters of the Universe. This one takes me back to my days living in SF. Nothing better than skating down to our neighborhood liquor store and grabbing a cold one on a Thursday evening. This track was always a go to as soon as I put my headphones in. Definitely brings the nostalgia every time I hear it. A nice reminder of the simpler times. So for this Thursday make sure to get out and support your local small businesses. Go cop some nice beverages and kick those feet up. Enjoy this week’s track. Salute!

THURSDAY TRACK VOL. 5

Good Day / (C) 2022 Co. Fliks

We are finally back for another Thursday Track. Pardon the absence last week due to the holiday. For this week’s track I wanted to share a jazzy tune I discovered recently. This song has been in constant rotation ever since. The track is titled “24/7” by Paul Brown off the album Up Front. Felt this was a perfect track to kick off the last month of 2022. Shot this image a while back before going to a local happy hour. The beverage featured in the shot is Soju. I got put onto Good Day Soju by my close friend Randy aka Rudeboy a couple years ago. I suggest you do the same. You can find it at any Korean market. Be a little adventurous this last month and try a new beverage. Step out your drinking comfort zone. You can thank me later. Anyways, we made it. It’s finally the last day before we can get back into the weekend. Set your mood lights, crack open a cold beverage and enjoy this week’s track. Salute!

Beverage: Good Day Soju (Blueberry)

Track Selection: “24/7” by Paul Brown

THURSDAY TRACK VOL. 4

Tiki Bar NYC / (C) 2022 Co. Fliks

Welcome back to another volume of Thursday Tracks. Doesn’t it feel damn good knowing tomorrow is finally the weekend? I’m sure many of you are already checked out for next weeks festivities. I wanted to share a funky dance track that always gets me into weekend mode. This week’s track is called “Comes and Goes (ft. Annakalmia Traver)” by Chico Mann. I mean if you aren’t dancing or moving some body part to this song kudos to you. I highly recommend checking Chico Mann out. Been a fan for awhile now. I took this photo in a random tiki bar in NYC a few years ago. Always fun when a bar has its own twist on drinks. So go grab yourself a nice little beverage and turn your speakers way up for this one. It’s the last night before the weekend. Treat yourself.

Beverage: Pineapple Concoction & Red Stripe

Track: Comes and Goes ft Annakalmia Traver by Chico Mann

THURSDAY TRACK Vol. 3

5 o’clock Somewhere / (C) 2022 Co. Fliks

It’s that time of year again when the days get shorter and the nights are longer. I wanted to dedicate this week’s Thursday Track to anyone who is having trouble adjusting or just feels like the day goes on forever. The track I selected is called “I need a break” by Suff Daddy. This European producer has been a favorite of mine for many years. If you enjoy beats and instrumentals I highly recommend checking his albums out. This has always been a go to track for me when I need to kick off a moment to myself. Gets you in the mood to either hit the couch or a happy hour. This photo was taken at one of my local neighborhood spots. Sometimes that little break is the prefect reset. So cheers to anyone on the constant grind. Kick your feet up with a cold beverage and take a damn break. This ones for you. Salute!

Beverage: Casamigo’s Blanco Shot & Cucumber Lime Margarita

Track: Suff Daddy – I Need A Break

Thursday Track Vol. 2

Cabana / (C) 2022 Co. Fliks

This week’s Thursday Track is a farewell to the warmer months as the weather cools down. For the limited few that know about the Cabana, you know how much love I have for that place. The track I paired with this image is called Não Tem Nada Não by Marcos Valle. Whenever I see this photo I instantly think of this song. It really captures the vibe you get from being at the cabana. Nothing but good food, friends and sunshine every time. I have plenty more photos to share from this place. For now pour yourself a nice drink, sit back and relax! Salute!

Beverage: Graham Beck (Brut)

Track: Não Tem Nada Não by Marcos Valle

Thursday Track Vol.1

Since it’s almost the weekend I wanted to start a series I will be doing each week. Every Thursday I will be sharing an album or a track of the day I am listening to with a beverage.

To kick off the first Thursday Track I wanted to share one of my favorite albums from my collection. I have been listening to Blu & Exile’s “Below the Heavens” since 2008. If you haven’t listened to their music, I highly recommend doing so. The album recently turned 15 this year to top it off. So kick back with a cold beverage and enjoy one of my favorite tracks off the album.

Beverage: Heineken (@Heineken)

Song: Simply Amazin’ (Steel Blazin’) by Blu & Exile (@bluherfavcolor) (@exileradio)
