Orange by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion is, quite frankly, something that gets your blood pumping for the day. Chock full of classic 90s blue collar swagger and trashy guitar riffs, it's got soul you can smell, taste and feel from the strands in your arm. If you've got a boner (or erect nipples) for underground New York bar rock concerts, this is a great album to get a whiplash from.
Crazy Rhythm by The Feelies is, described very frankly, a group of sophomore Virginity Rocks™ pals coming together to have fun with a bunch of instruments. At first glance they might seem like suburban rock novices who know the bare minimum but as you listen you could tell these guys know what they're doing. Solid riffs cooped with catchy choruses (EVERYBODY'S GOT SOMETHING TO HIDE EXCEPT FOR ME AND MY MONKEY) along with drums and cymbals that don't stand out but play with each other perfectly.
Imagine bouncing on your bed listening to your favourite innocent boy band in your sweet sixteen; that's the vibe this album has.
'Round About Midnight by Miles Davis is the type of slow sax jazz that gets em late 60s to early 70s panties wet. If you're the romantic kind of person that enjoys sensual, sensitive, sexy drags and compositions, this is bound to be found in your alley sooner or later. Want slow, passionate, kissy sex with your hubby/waifu? This is the shit to put on your phonograph while you rock the bed and break the springs.
Kill This Love EP by BlackPink.
Look, it's KPop. It's audibly engineered to be earworms with the catchiest of choruses and hummiest of shower singing tunes. Personally speaking, this thing is like a soulless cash grab to me, but if I was Pinocchio, I'd be hanging towels over my nose if I didn't admit to having this turned on while I bust a gay move or two in the shower.
It's not memorable nor does it have any redeemable qualities aside from its surface value. But, if you want a quick mental/emotional boost to get you through the day, give it a shot.
Astroworld by Travis Scott is the quintessential "turn brain off and activate monke neuron". I have nothing to say about this aside from a good recommendation for those wanting to wet their toes into rap. Does it get your dopamine rushing in? Maybe. I can't guarantee it, but since it worked for me, it might work for you.
