Best summer music

[russell]

Since it looks like it's finally fully Spring around here, I've had need to pull out my summer tunes for those long windows-down drives and outdoor Boyah browsings.

What are your favorite albums/artists/songs for summer?

My top album is definitely Keep Guessin', by the defunct Minneapolis band Hockey Night. Because I know no one here has heard it, and because I hate the band for breaking up mid-way through production of the album's sequel, I shall provide it to you for free (link below). It is excellent and I'd encourage anyone who likes alternative/indie to try it.

how is architecture in helsinki summery
well only some songs are but in total they sound spring-ish

[Skylark]

aw they are spring-ish

that makes me want to listen to architecture in helsinki but the weather here is getting really summer-y so i don't know if it counts

[Veal]

oh yeah i am more of a spring person anyway so i just listen to spring-ish stuff year-round

[Skylark]

thinking about the music i listen to year round i don't know if any of it qualifies for any season exclusively.

it is barely spring here ;_;

[Skylark]

it is barely spring here ;_;

It is 77 right now which is really nice but it will probably get up to around 90 and then it is just hot
