Collab High Five!

So, the 2 readers or so of this blog is probably wondering “Why was there no post yesterday??”. Yea I dropped the ball, but yesterday was blazing hot and I couldn’t miss the opportunity to take advantage of it.

As soon as work ended, I was in my car with the windows rolled down and the sunroof rolled back. I turned my music loud and suddenly some songs were hitting the right spots. They had that perfect sound for the summer heat. I could have literally driven for hours along the coast and not care about a single thing. Who could ask for a better summer day? So, now I present to you some of the songs that are great to pump in your car with the summer humid wind flowing around.

Freelance Whales – A Great Estate
The Great Estates by blackbirdflyy

When this song came up, I just wanted to lay off the gas pedal and enjoy the scenery that was blasting by me.

Bag Raiders – Shooting Stars

This has a special groove that just puts a smile on my face. And I can’t help but sing along at the end.

Vampire Weekend – Horchata

How can you not like the genius use of percussion in this song? It also helps that this song is crazy fun to sing along to.

Jonsi – Go Do
Go Do – Jonsi by D-Waves

Everything about this track just sends off that happy vibe.

Coldplay – Fix You

Arguably, one of the best builds in a rock song.

Above & Beyond and Kyau & Albert – Anphonic (Arty Mix)

You know I had to include some trance in here. By far, one of my top ten trance songs for 2010 — and has a great summer vibe to it.

Duderstadt – Stranded in NYC

Another recent trance song that hit the summer chords. Love it.

High Five to all these great musicians for make my summer beach run so nice!
