German producer DJ Koze makes pleasant music, the kind of songs that wouldn’t sound out of place bubbling on the speakers at a Palm Springs pool party. But, if you listen close enough, there’s always a spiritual element beneath the surface, too—Koze, who’s been making music since the early 2000s, is a notorious divine searcher, aptly naming his new album of remixes Reincarnations Part 2. An unreleased redo of **Matthew Dear’**s “Black City,” streaming here, has a lightness and droning repetition that feels almost unrelenting in its pursuit of happiness—it sounds, quite simply, like a frozen margarita tastes. Enjoy, and check out more information about Koze’s new album, which is out October 28 and will have remixes of Mount Kimbie and Caribou.
