Our mixtape series continues with an entry from pop perfectionists, Acid House Kings. For his turn behind the DJ decks, frontman Niklas Angergård decided to take us on a ride through a few of the more unexpected corners of his music collection.

“The theme is that there is no theme,” says of his picks. “It's 10 great songs, all of them personal favorites of mine. If it proves anything, it is that the fantastic pop music comes in many different shapes. A wall of distorted guitars or a modern Frank Ocean production can never a hide a beautiful melody.”

Take a listen below. Like what you hear? The band is reissuing their first three albums, beginning with Advantage Acid House Kings on August 28. You can also wrap your ears around their newest remix here.
