Quintessential Alt/Indie Summer Soundtrack

nervous_twitch · 11-07-2013 02:24PM #1

Before I melt into a puddle of my own goo, I thought it might be an idea to gather together some of the Alt/Ind songs that we all associate with this wonderful time of year. Whether over a BBQ or down at the beach, it's always handy to have a go-to playlist to get you in the right frame of mind.

For those who hate the heat, move along

I have a whole tonne of summer music that I can think of, but these two in particular take me right into the heart of it.

Always think of summer when I hear this song for some reason.

This whole bringing home turf from the bog business takes its toll you know

Here's two songs that sound great on a lazy summer evening:

M83 - We Own The Sky
