Huh?

What’s that?

Sorry, we can’t hear anything right now.

We’re a little wrapped up in all the playlists we’ve put together with those beasts from Java Monster to keep your head nodding and even occasionally banging throughout your day.

Music is a huge part of your life, whether you’re making it or listening to it. Which is why we’ve put together “The Soundtrack to Your Life,” a guide to the playlists that will help you thrive throughout your day.

From the tunes that amp you up for your morning workout to the songs that help you and a date get closer at night, it’s all covered.

All you have to do is turn it up!

Your morning alarm goes off. Ugh, oh, oof. We know. This sucks. But you’re going to get up and going right away with a can of Java Monster’s Mean Bean, which blends premium coffee and cream with safe ingredients like B vitamins, taurine, inositol, and L-Carnitine, which play a role in converting nutrients into energy, without the sugar load you get from a typical vanilla latte. Taurine will be a mighty accomplice in sustaining your daily energy because it is a safe booster of exercise capacity (it's safe enough for baby formula). Taurine is even used to protect recovering heart patients. Next, you’ll turn to the soulful morning classics that put a smile on your face and remind you to leave no day wasted.

The paired playlist: Doja Cat and SZA's "Kiss Me More," Major Lazer and Sia's "Titans," SZA's "Percolator," Wale's "Movin Different," Dua Lipa's "Pretty Please," Lizzo's "Juice," TokiMonsta's "Get Me Some"

Time for your workout. You’re up. But rather than rest on that extraordinary achievement, now you’ll actually get at ‘em. After a clean, nourishing breakfast, you’ll jump into the gym or hopefully, your private dojo, to get that heart pumping. This is not the time for easy listening. You’re going to blast your brainwaves with songs that are maximum energy, motivating, and sometimes even a little hardcore.

The paired playlist: 21 Savage's "Runnin," Migos' "Racks 2 Skinny," Megan Thee Stallion's "Don't Stop," " DMX's "Hood Blues," Tyler the Creator's "Lemonhead,"Willow Smith's "Transparent Soul," Travis Scott’s “Sicko Mode” 

Time to get wet. You’re doing the pool or the beach with friends. Just like you did yesterday. And plan to do tomorrow. You’ll pack a few cans of Java Monster Salted Caramel and Loca Moca in your cooler, because you like to share and watch your friends’ expressions when they taste the full flavor. Plus, you need them to be alive for that game where everyone crouches over a tiny trampoline to hit a not-very-bouncy ball. Or maybe you’ll say “screw that” and swim out to the buoys while your playlist serenades them with the most iconic hits.

The paired playlist: Olivia Rodrigo's "Good For You," Nicki Minaj's "Itty Bitty Piggy," Chai's "End," Cardi B's "Up," Drake's "What's Next," Thuy's "In My Bag,” DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince’s “Summertime,” Trini Lopez’s “Cuando Calienta el Sol,” and pretty much anything by Snoop Dogg.

Dinner duty is calling. You put the kibosh on your bonfire and head home to cook for someone special. There will be no Metallica this time. Just bright tunes that set the energy on high without any gratuitous noise. So you can focus on making that one dish you’ve become proficient in that you always make for first-time dinner dates.

The paired playlist: Yuno’s “There’s No Going Back,” Whitney’s “Golden Days,” Bob Marley’s & The Wailers’ “Sun Is Shining,” Mazzy Star’s “She’s My Baby,” Tame Impala’s “Feels Like We Only Go Backwards,” Fela Kuti’s “He Miss Road,” Manu Chao’s “Bongo Bong/Je Ne T’aime Plus.”

Whatever comes next. Damn, you make that dish so good. Now you two are cuddled up under the stars or sharing a blanket by the fireplace and ignoring whatever’s on Netflix. It’s getting hot in here. Better make sure you have the right tunes for this.

The paired playlist: Jahi Sundance’s “Faded Naked,” Miguel’s “Vixen,” Khurangbin and Leon Bridge’s “Midnight,” William DeVaughn’s “Just be Thankful for What You Got,” Black Jonas Point’s “Te Enseñe a Querer,” Khalid and H.E.R.’s “This Way,” Blood Orange’s “Chamakay,” The Weeknd’s “High For This.”
