Top 10: Summertime Jams

Here are my Top 10 Summertime Jams that will fo' sure get you grooving.

Whether you're journeying to the beach in a car with your buds, or just chilling in the garden by yourself, these tracks are guaranteed to get you dancing! So grab a cold drink and enjoy the vibes.

10. Red Hot Chili Peppers – Hump De Bump

This is one of the funkiest tracks from these legends. That trumpet!



9. Bombay Bicycle Club – Always Like This

That riff was the depiction of Summer ’09 for me and probably many others, too.


8. Metronomy – Corinne

That melody behind the chorus is immense; definitely one of my favourites from 'The English Riviera'.


7. Yaaks – HRHRHYTHM

An underground track from an underground band; sadly they only lasted a couple of years. I imagine a Summer night when listening to this BIG tune.



6. Foals – Olympic Airways

How could I not include a Foals track? Honestly, Summer is personified in this track. Such a chill tune!



5. Two Door Cinema Club – Something Good Can Work

This is probably on everybody's Summer jam list already, and has good reason to be, too!


4. Jamie xx – Far Nearer

This young chap has been tearing up the bass from the ’09. The steel pans really adds that extra Summer feel in this track.


3. Owiny Sigoma Band – Harpoon Land

These guys solidly fuse African beats with groovy guitar riffs. So many vibes!


2. SBTRKT – Pharaohs

This masked hero is doing it right with this massive festival hit.


1. MGMT – Electric Feel

Now this one should have been expected really. Who doesn't love this song?! What a classic. Enjoy!


If you're not ready for the sun after listening to those groovy sounds, then I guess you live in Antarctica. Breezy breezy.
