It’s 2017, weed is legal in California and we’ve just entered the year of the Rooster (Happy Lunar New Year)! Despite all of the political bullshit we’ve been viewing on the news, it’s time to throw your hands up in the air and wave them like you just don’t give AF. And to keep yourself balanced throughout the year, here are 10 strains you should try with fresh tunes that will compliment each vibe.

Strain: Stardawg

Song: "Trouble" by The Knocks

Mood: Best Combo for Dance Parties

It’s Friday, you’ve had a long workweek and the last thing you want to do is party. You’d rather ‘netflix and chill’, but you’ve already promised your BFF/ DJ that you’d go to his DJ gig, so you need to get up from your ass and onto the dance floor; fist pumping and everything. Never fear, Stardawg is here! Since Stardawg is a sativa dominate strain, you will experience an energizing jolt with a chase of vibrating warmth. Stardawg will surely keep you moving on the dance floor, as long as you don’t consume too much! And since your BFF is the DJ, you can request “Trouble” by the Knocks at the booth.

Pure ecstasy. This delightful treat tastes just as sweet as its name; it will leave you feeling tingly, relaxed and sexy. This the perfect strain to set the mood and allow Alina Baraz's sultry voice seduce you away. Want to go the extra mile? Add a few sprays of the cannabis infused aphrodisiac, Foria in the bedroom for her pleasure.

Strain: BANANA OG

Song: “Let Go” by Justin Jay & Friends Ft. Josh Taylor

Mood: Road Trips

This hybrid lives up to its name with a smell and flavor of over-riped bananas.
