http://youtu.be/nqbpyVD66tA
Current Carry - Vetiver

http://www.youtube.com/watch?t=69&v=fcOC7YpFltw

Lunchmoney Lewis - Mama

Maybe that's not summer enough idk...but i feel it

fixed B-)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcOC7YpFltw

I still have the thread from last year bookmarked because I never got through them all >_<

glad someone else likes Vetiver. these are both great.

my fav annual thread

<3 this thread

is it really summer when i'm still wearing a jumper tho

well i guess i have a brilliant slew already

honey cocaine - sundae

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W61p-9Ev544

dexta daps - 7eleven

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9MtScGfC7g

dotorado pro - african scream

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJE_Qejh0tU

the entire honey cocaine ep is brilliant btw, any song could fit in here

busiswa - lahla

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bd46jAe1ukU

presh ft. davido - say dem say

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKGKfNDqCMI

v surprised by the balearic caetano veloso vibes i get from that vetiver song

Oddisee - Thats Love
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFtsX_XxXew

i dunno really what counts as summer jam around these parts and this is a couple months gone by but i heard it at the coffee shop a few weeks back and was totally sold by the wild going-for-it disco vocals -

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJ-vhstIgC4

The Knocks - Collect My Love (feat. Alex Newell)

Kehlani - Alive
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DMOJkqeSrQ

summer jams is a feeling xp

yeah mine probably not laid-back/by-the-pool enough. probably my favorite thing i've gotten from one of these threads was wiley "heatwave," would be down for more like that.

that kehlani has a good vibe, i like the nintendo sounds on the chorus feeling very comfortable with the dreamy guitar and very "clean"-sounding vocals. kinda about done with this "hold on, we're going home" rhythm/momentum which feels like blasphemy to me cause historically i've always craved more of those drum sounds. hmmm.

bad rabbits - way with words

https://soundcloud.com/bad-rabbits/way-with-words

doubles as summer/rollerskating jam

not a proper summer jam thread until grady post something tho

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1BYHC7DHHI
HNNY - Fruktstund

wait why was this thread title edited ??

project pablo - follow it up

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQgsbXNVGIg

did anyone send the Forks-Signal yet so we can get a spotify playlist going?

was iffy on "Way With Words" until it really kicked in, but now i'm feeling the roller boogie oomph. the zapp (or i guess "uptown funk") elements aren't unwelcome either.

yes i will be needing the spotify playlist b/c my browser will prob crash after a few more songs are added itt lol

forks signal activated; here's the rolling Spotify playlist:
<a href="http://open.spotify.com/user/forksclovetofu/playlist/3Ddjsj0w7VG3rtUEFqCU0o";>ILX's Summer Jams 2015 Playlist</a>

Bleh:

also here's a gimme:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_kF4zLNKio

In love with that bad rabbits track.

somehow never got around to hearing that honey cocaine track till now and was surprised to see it interpolated "da birds"

this came out last winter i think but summer is the right time for it :D

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7d_24jTN0Y

yes, i been jammin that ep this summer

Lion Babe - Wonder Woman (Joel Compass Remix)

This is a banger

https://soundcloud.com/lionbabe/wonder-woman-joel-compass-remix

the OG version is pleasant too but much more laconic (prod. by pharrell): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cypK8nDxR9E

Can someone post snoop's "so many pros"

didn't you just?

i'm fairly happy with my creative nerd scum interpretation than the wandering genial serendipity of its success is its own qualification as summerjam totem more than particularly much about the tune itself

thant

I'd like to nominate Nigeria's Young John the Wicked Producer's sound as the Sound of Spring+Summer 2015.

Because:

Lil Kesh "Gbese"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvwiEejTuoE

Olamide "Bobo"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFmZKO35SfQ

Sexy Steel "Sisi"

Also, released last year, but this is its first summer:

Ricky Blaze ft. Shaggy & Kranium "Overrated"
https://soundcloud.com/fmerecordings/ricky-blaze-feat-kranium-shaggy-overrateddirty
a full video was never released (so far):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeoYTnp6hkU

And:

Bigbang "Bae Bae"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKD03uPVD-Q

https://youtu.be/nAPw_bmwxhQ

I prefer Deja Vu to Freefalling, but that's a solid 12".

― Johnny Fever, Saturday, May 9, 2015 3:05 AM (5 days ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

yeah, 'deja vu' is great too, and catchier, 'freefalling' is just more blissed out and sun-scorched, both definite summer jams tho

This is my jam right now:

Todd Terje - Alfonso Muskedunder (Mungolian vs Tangoterje Dub) (2015)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFckoohSzVc

There are some great songs in this thread btw.

Also:

Falcon Punch - Donald's Bird

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7TCRdBE6Ns

maroon 5 "this summer's gonna hurt like a motherfucker"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T59kB3hq3Yg

Wrong thread.

yeah yeesh

absolute fucking tune, step to it
i see god in that hook

Oh I stepped in it, alright.

i have a lot of patience for maroon 5 but yikes

Actually, having listened to it in full, I hate that I'm going to be singing along to this. Because summer always hurts like this.

as long as forks keeps it off the playlist

like one of the first things mentioned itt was a lunchmoney lewis song
this is not the cross we need to die on

as it happens, not yet on spotify

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFGN5JcQQm4

dig the texture of the Becky G song, as usual don't fuck with the product placement in the vid

Yup, another great tune from Becky G. Everyone else feeling this? Wish I lived in LA for those taco trucks alone.

chris lake & chris lorenzo - piano hand

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtPJLC0aMW4

Pender Street Steppers - Golden Garden

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHwhMxuHyPk

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLIJhmJSY4

Good run.

This is kind of cheesy a la Junior Senior but it's been making the rounds on some clubs around here and I'm starting to fall for it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DaInuaZz08

Oh maybe scratch that last one since noone has mentioned this yet:

Major Lazer feat. MO - Lean On

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rn9AQoI7mYU

This is the official video (not the lyrics one) :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqeW9_5kURI

Mmm apparently a quick search tells me the guys from Galantis wrote Britney's Toxic and Icona Pop's I love it.

And last one, I promise:

Mura Masa - Lovesick Fuck

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LwHBw0EXe8

eche palante: a discussion between saxes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2H7P0lYAlw

mad old at this point but its time has come
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzMhcP7ab3k

It's also old but "Flex (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)" by Rich Homie Quan is my "summer jam"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWMw4vE3J8s

and the new Destroyer song
https://soundcloud.com/destroyerband/dream-lover

Is the DRAM song sampling a Nintendo game song? It sounds very familiar but can't pinpoint where I've heard it before.

Anyways, sounds good.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkUKFdacHvo

thx for these jams and the playlist 😎

The Odissee one is great because it demonstrates that you could easily sample Stereolab in hip hop and it would sound awesome.

"i know there's gonna be (good times)" is w/o a doubt my summer jam, i play it about 100 times a day

i'm loving hearing "flex" on the radio lately

Is the DRAM song sampling a Nintendo game song? It sounds very familiar but can't pinpoint where I've heard it before.

yep, it's the star road music from super mario world :) https://youtu.be/j36B92fifJI

just heard good times for the first time... that persuasions sample!

Oh it's true! That's a great choice of a sample.

a light breeze is lifting a spirit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPuqCcDGwso

This one is great too:

LIM KIM - AWOO

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXPADwU05OQ

Can't find it on spotify tho.

lil mama - sausage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSGOOCxLGuQ

the vine inspired chorus is SO BAD

i had no idea it was a vine inspired chorus and i love it!

Ciara's "All Good" is officially up for consideration for best summer jam since "Beautiful." i would highly recommend Spotifying it as soon as possible.

years & years - king
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_uoH6hJilc

LMAO witness for the defense imo

is this a poorly worded zing or an agreement with what i said? either way, your opinion is objectively bad and wrong

If you dislike a vine record is probably a classic

Inverse transitive property of if you like it, it's probably an annoying novelty

Not so much annoying as your opinion is objectively bad and wrong, but I appreciate you staying on brand

Three more:

Saint Motel - My Type

Chemical Brothers feat. Q tip - Go

man i though the norman blake in question was the guitarist who played with johnny cash and my mind was gonna pop

TAZER + TINK song is a banger.

The original was posted in the cuttin shapes thread last year

I'll always be referring to the Norman Blake from Teenage Fanclub unless I'm talking to my bluegrass loving sister.

Carly Rae Jepsen x Breakbot - Call Me Baby, I'm Yours

kind of a slow season huh?
is it gonna be trap queen?

It's been and gone in Australia (not summer here anyway) and I think the UK too, but "Cheerleader" looks like it has a shot at being the next US #1

it's gonna be "cheerleader"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGflUbPQfW8
^this? i am listening to it for the first time

yes, the jaehn remix is the popular one. It's been ubiquitious in my city this summer.

lol how is this possible

sometimes people have jobs and lives and other interests

lol says the guy meticulously curating a dozen ilx spotify playlists

That would be one of my other interests

Besides which, it's more like two dozen. Speaking of which: I just went through and pruned this thread's playlist and added a few tracks (missed Omi the first time around... it's pretty bland to my ears? ) but it's up-to-date with everything listed on here that's available on Spotify. 60 tracks, 3+ hours.

Ekkah - Last Chance to Dance
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvM1a72Dcqw
Released in October, but I missed it til recently, and it got a laidback poolside vibe.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkGHEbW1OMw

There's a GAGA sample in there btw.

Also this is on Spotify now and it's a summer jam too:

Bicep - Celeste:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kg1ZW5J7SVM

lol came here to post this, same ep

bicep - just

https://youtu.be/oq2Oq1J6t70

oh wow this bicep ep is awesome

It's like they're going for some kind of nu breaks vibe, reminds me of Layo & Bushwacka! or PMT's 'Gyromancer'.

SummerTime Consensus 2015 Spotify Playlist
But I will argue Silento deserves direct addition:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBWrpVrazzA
what else on that list is ILX approved?

continuing lack of consensus

Not really tho right? It's the Furious 7 ballad pretty much.

not really a "jam" though is it

Silento record is kinda wack

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUdl96yqioc

This was on a June CMJ sampler, and I'm totally digging its languid, LDR vibe.
Also, Ian Cohen hated their record, which is a good contrarian signal.

I've been listening and adding tracks to this playlist all summer:

https://open.spotify.com/user/moteldemoka/playlist/7mxHhrMyUGjK55aKZemx76

Most of them coincide with the ones in here but there's some songs from past years as well.

Sad songs can be summer jams too:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYbh6ob_R9M

Rae Sremmurd, "This Could Be Us"

Good For You selena

also sad

Nigerian summer jams, part 2:

Tekno "Duro"

xp was it martorialist? think i saw him on the case iirc

last i checked there were little mutated bits here and there but not all coalesced to any big mix level (would need some blogger to make its uprooted case anyway) but i'll have another look

these all tend to arise from the uk roadrap type scene (sbtv / madaboutmixtapes on youtube, sort of a combo between datpiff and the old youth-submitted urban tv channel channel-u from grime's mid to late 00s) and tbh a lot of it is a terrible chore to sift thru for truffles, ime anyway

Otherwise, this is a quick reminder that summer is sadly over (though latecomers will be added to playlist through the end of the year) and that all available tracks mentioned on this thread have being updated to the thread-specific Spotify playlist as posted. I just did another top-to-bottom sweep prior to posting this message and have revised as of today with everything that's been added since first mentioned. It's 94 tracks, over 6 hours.

Add "No Sleeep" to that list, pronto.

Probably well past time to consider any here but as we move to the end of the year, I'd like to drop a quick note to encourage any readers / lurkers / ilxors to post their favorite summer jams from this year to the thread so that I can hoover them into the ongoing spotify playlist. Last chance for any accessible stragglers that may not already be in the lexicon.

I'm wrapping this playlist for the year. It has been updated with a few new adds (Geko, Macross 82-99, Format: B) and includes every track mentioned on thread that is available via Spotify's US catalogue as of EOY 2015. If I missed something or if a track comes available sometime in the future, bump here to let me know and I'll add.
