Summer Albums
 

I'm getting set for another summer, music is always essential.

Which albums 'frame' that summer's day?

Crustation - Bloom (1998)

Genre - Trip Hop

Umm... I tend to start listening to more of Motown and Latin music during the summer. I'll post more as I go along.

Mega City Four - Sebastopol Road (1992)

Has summer written all over it.

For summer, an absolute classic is New Order's "Technique", in fact this record IS summer in my opinion :D

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Possibly! The last track oozes summer.:) Then there's Mr Disco, ah yeah........ Vanishing Point. Not forgetting Round & Round (with glockenspiel), oh, and Fine Time.

Sod it! You're right!:D

:D

I would add to that "Disco 2" by the Pet Shop Boys. Few people like this remix album but the fact that it emphasizes fast-paced high-energy tracks makes it a perfect summer album :)

Which reminds me...

Somehow I feel like that Ugly kid Joe doesn't fit in..

the beatles. i've been downloading some beatle albums. i have this rare beatle album where they are doing outtakes of their songs. also ozzy is a fav. for me. rock on.:winamp:

The strokes, Is this it (album name)

you mean "this is it"?

ill put down:
magnus, body gave you everything
air, talkie walkie
flaming lips, yoshimi
hendrix, electric lady land

Im not sure if they are really summer albums, but i associate them all with summery things.

check out www.spamlinkremoved.fuck.off.com

you can listen and download everything indie that you read about--make a mix, put it on your mp3 player and decide what you think!

No.

the album is called "is this it?". the question mark may or may not be there. i'm not a big fan of the strokes, i think they're boring. but that's just me.

summer stuff... ummm:
The DJ Shadow/Cut Chemist Brainfreeze sets.
Anything by eels.
Anything by Madness.
Gorillaz - Gorillaz
Lemon Jelly.
Orbital - The Altogether

+ all that stuff i listen to the rest of the year...

oops.. i ripped it as "This is it". :P

Sorry

could this thread be re-named to Summer/winter albums -

down under winter is approching.

Crustation with Bronagh Slevin - Bloom (great, but unfortunately quite rare summery trip hop album)

Not so rare (refer to post #1). :D

Ivy - Long Distance (2001)

Not much sign of summer (yet), but no shortage of a summer tune.

This is more like Smiths weather. :hang:

Hoooly shit... how did I miss that. :eek:

Still, it's a great album (and yes, it is actually rare now).



So, erm, my entry will be Garmarna - Vengeance.

:up:


A few of my own:
Afterlife - Simplicity 2000
Zero 7 - Simple Things
Jamiroquai - Travelling Without moving
dZihan & Kamien - Freaks & Icons
BT - Movement in Still Life
