This week's mixtape rewind takes us back to 2023 when Matt and Sam put together a mix for the Women's World Cup.
The whistle blew, the bracket shifted, and the story changed—so we built a soundtrack that changes with it. Our U‑S‑A chant mix isn’t about pretending the loss didn’t happen; it’s about finding the spark that keeps fans singing and players pushing. We start with Haim’s “Up From A Dream,” that hazy snap from comfort to clarity, and bolt into Metric’s “Stadium Love,” where the guitars do what three thousand supporters do best: raise the pulse. Christina Aguilera’s “Accelerate” adds a gear shift, proof that sometimes a team wins by changing rhythm, not volume.
From there, the narrative widens. ABBA’s “Under Attack” becomes an uncanny match diary—defense breaking, composure tested—while Rihanna’s “SOS” turns pressure into propulsion with an infectious, Tainted Love‑tinted bassline. Lady Gaga’s “A‑Yo” brings a confetti‑ready burst for the winners’ circle, even as Drake, Santigold, and Lil Wayne lay down “Unstoppable,” a mantra for imperfect excellence and work that shows. Adele’s “Set Fire to the Rain” gives the heartbreak an edge, the chip on the shoulder you carry into training, and Queen’s “Another One Bites the Dust” delivers the ruthless truth of knockout play with a bassline built for swagger.
We close on perspective and poise. Regina Spektor’s “Up to the Mountain” models match management—hurry when it’s on, slow when it isn’t—before Gang Starr’s “She Knows What She Wants” salutes the women who set the standard and chase the crown. Heavy Heavy’s “All My Dreams” sends us out in a warm, retro glow, reminding us that every champion started as a dreamer. If your team fell short, hit play and regroup; if your team advanced, turn it up and celebrate. Subscribe, share with a fellow fan, and leave a review to help more listeners find their next match‑day anthem.
