SA Songs to Turn Up in the AM to Power Up Your Day
DJ Voodoo
Start your day off the right way by listening to the right tunes! Here are 18 homegrown songs from 2021 that DJ Voodoo swears will kickstart your morning.
I think we can all agree that 2020 was a tough year. For everybody. And the same goes for South African artists and musicians. Despite that, however, their creative juices were clearly flowing, because they have *delivered* when it comes to tunes in 2021.
While some of them are more chilled and mellow (which is also necessary since the world has undergone such an enormous change), others have a beat and tempo that will get you in the zone for a winning day ahead.
The Power of Sound
Music sounds nice. But it is so much more powerful than that! It can affect our minds and bodies in a variety of ways. Listening turning up the tunes can elevate your mood, increase your endurance and distract you from fatigue and pain.
Studies have even shown that people who listen to music while exercising can out-last and out-perform those who don’t. Of course, it’s important that your playlist makes you want to move!
Want to start your day off the right way? Put on your headphones and get listening to the best SA songs to power up your mornings.
