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

crooning "body nuuuumb full of druuuugs" all summer irl i predict

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"

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

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):

And:

Bigbang "Bae Bae"

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

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=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:

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

The sun's out. Too early for a 2016 summer jams thread?

It's never too early to summon the sun, or the Gods of sunkissed pop hybrids

do it!
