that's such a mixed bag though that i don't wanna fuck up our curated playlist with all that undifferentiated dross, so they're all here:SummerTime Consensus 2015 Spotify PlaylistBut I will argue Silento deserves direct addition:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBWrpVrazzAwhat else on that list is ILX approved?

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

Sort of melancholic but love the disco diva sample.
Swedish artist HNNY makes some simple, sample based sunny music too:

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.

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.
― Eugene Goostman (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 1 December 2015 08:41 (eight years ago) link
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.
