If you follow BENT, our daily blog, you’ve probably noticed that on Fridays, we post an office party playlist on Spotify. Past installments have included the latest album from pop duo Matt & Kim, a “Then and Now” look at R&B groups whose members attempted solo careers, and some of the hippest music being made today.

After taking the holidays off, the Friday Office Party is back! Scan the QR code below and start listening to the latest installment on Spotify. This week’s playlist features a track from French band Phoenix as a tribute to their promised new release in 2013, a brand-new song from Syracuse group Ra Ra Riot, and some tracks from last year’s best albums.

Be sure to crank it all the way up to 11 for you and your officemates. You all deserve a musical break, and don’t be shy—start butt dancing in that ergo-adjustable chair.
