Oh the fucking irony. When i’m about to post some summer music, matching with all the sun we had the last week, the weather sucks big time. But untill then, this music will be the sun in your lives! Just like last year, another summer post! We offer you some happy and shiny music, hooray! Some music you’ll already know, other tracks you don’t! Some are classics, some are not. Check it out:
The Lovin’ Spoonful – Summer In The City
An old track (from 1966!) but what a great and sunny track! A great starter and this is just the beginning! We are awesome! Be sure to check this version by Regina Spector – Summer in the city
Martha Reeves & The Vandellas – (Your Love is Like A) Heat Wave
An even older track (1963!) but equally awesome and summerish! Some funky and catchy chorus. Only old music can sound like, lovely!
My favourite summertune ever, is made by Weezer! This song is all what vacation and summer is about: pure fun!
Another classic, another song that just shows how awesome rock music can be! This is made for a cool summer party!
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones – The Impression that i get
Next up: Some ska music! This kind of music is the most happy and summerish music ever! And we offer you a song by Ska legends The Mighty Mighty Bosstones! Great stuff!
One of the most summerish songs released last year! Some nice and chilling electronics with a dreamy flow.
Nouvelle Vague – Ca Plane Pour Moi
Nouvelle vague made this classic by Plastic Bertrand in one of the most happy songs ever made!
Major Lazer made an album full of dancehall and ragga and summer music! The most crazy song for me was “Hold the line” feat. Santigold. Great Product Placement too.
Punks Jump Up – Dance To Our Disco
Punks Jump Up make some really funky and summerish music! ‘Dance to our disco’ is my favourite, check it out!
The discovery version of the track “Can You Tell?” by Ra Ra Riot. I Prefer this one because this one is like the summer version; happy and awesome!
Rye Rye – Shake it to the ground
Some funky track by hipster Rye Rye. You’ll probably know the remix version, but the original isn’t bad either.
The most summerish band around these days: The Drums! Their Summertime Ep is great and my favourite song is “Saddest Summer”. Unlike the title, this song is just pure fun and sunshine! My favourite song in this list!
Spinvis – Ik wil alleen maar zwemmen
To close this post: one of the track I listen to most lately. Made by Spinvis and in Dutch… It’s so awesome and the lyrics are magical!
Enjoy this tracks and let’s all pray for the sunshine!
