THE LOOK TELLS A STORY. Get closer to the people, the design, and the creative direction.

A late-night design session can start with Larry June and end somewhere completely different. A familiar guitar line, a soul record, a Bay Area favorite, or an electronic track can change the atmosphere of the room. KOLAK’s latest music-player additions make space for all of those turns.

The rotation now holds 100 tracks. The direction comes from the same place as the clothes and the interactive spaces: Bay Area culture, Silicon Valley technology, fashion, creativity, soul, and nostalgia. It is a soundtrack for the work, the ride, and the hours in between.

THE BAY IS THE STARTING POINT

Larry June - Another Day Pt. 2 [Prod. Ehll Evans and Motif Alumni] sits alongside selections including “Art Talk” and “Generation.” The additions also bring in The Pack’s “Vans,” Lil B’s “Wonton Soup,” Ezale’s “5 Minutes of Funktown,” Andre Nickatina x Mac Dre’s “My Homeboys Chevy,” and Zion I ft. Too Short’s “Don't Lose Your Head.”

These records give the rotation a regional foundation. They belong in the KOLAK environment alongside the instrumentals and cruising selections already in the player. The goal is to let that energy keep resurfacing as the listening experience moves into other sounds.

SOUL, GUITARS, AND ROOM TO BREATHE

Sharon Jones And The Dap Kings’ “Come and Be a Winner,” Leon Bridges’ “Peaceful Place,” and Nectar Woode’s “Only Happen” are part of that wider conversation. Fleetwood Mac’s “Warm Ways” and “You Make Loving Fun,” Barbra Streisand’s “Guilty” featuring Barry Gibb, and John Mayer’s “Wild Blue” bring another set of references into the room.

James Taylor’s “You've Got A Friend,” Lisa Loeb’s “Stay (I Missed You),” and City & Colour’s “Save Your Scissors” offer space for a quieter listening moment. KOLAK’s brief calls for the intimacy of a small live performance: attention to voices, instruments, and the feeling of being close to the music.

That is the listening atmosphere behind the selection. A mellow stretch should still hold your attention, and a nostalgic song should have a reason to sit beside something newer.

AFTER HOURS IN SILICON VALLEY

The expanded selection includes MACINTOSH PLUS, Kate Bush, All Saints, Fluke, and more. Alongside M83’s “Midnight City,” ODESZA’s “A Moment Apart,” and RÜFÜS DU SOL’s “Innerbloom,” these choices point toward another KOLAK setting: screens on, ideas moving, and a project carrying on after dark.

Picture the rotation moving between a creative workspace, a fashion showroom, a lounge, and a late-night production session. Each setting asks something different from the music. The through line is curiosity—the willingness to follow a sound beyond the genre where you first found it.

THINKING LIKE A DJ

The brief for the 100-track journey is about movement. An energetic rap record can lead toward something warm and soulful. A guitar-led song can open a reflective stretch before the momentum returns. Older and newer records should meet throughout the journey.

A few pairings capture that intention: Larry June into Leon Bridges and John Mayer; Fleetwood Mac beside Jungle; Sharon Jones leading toward Ezale and Andre Nickatina x Mac Dre. These are creative connections to explore through mood, rhythm, and texture. Some handoffs call for a lift, others for a breath.

The opening anchor is Penultimate Boss - A KOLAK Exclusive (Instrumental) [Prod. Gentle Beatz]. The planned closing run brings together Cheap Trick’s “Mighty Wings,” Kenny Loggins’ “Danger Zone,” T-Square’s “Travelers,” “Espana Cani,” Jamiroquai’s “Space Cowboy,” and Kanye West’s “Stronger (Instrumental).” The character-labeled selections carry the rotation into KOLAK’s arcade-inspired world.

THE SOUNDTRACK TO THE KOLAK UNIVERSE

Fashion, technology, and music share a place in KOLAK’s creative process. A song can set the pace for building something, bring back a memory, or introduce a reference that sends an idea in a new direction.

That is what these additions are here to do: keep the atmosphere moving. Bay Area confidence, warm soul, quiet reflection, and after-hours energy all have a place in the same room.
