Style: Vaporwave, chillwave
Primary Emotions/Themes: A collection of songs that exemplifies what chilled out synthwave/vaporwave is capable of when done right
Thoughts: There are a ton of records that I forget I have when I'm not systematically going through my collection. Unfortunately for me, this is one of those. Every time I put Endless Summer on it makes me smile, but it's not a record I go out of my way to listen to very often.
Every time I put this record on I find myself relaxing near instantly. The music has this groove to it that lures the stress and anxiety out of my body. It's like I can see it floating away in the distance. The synths are so calm and touch all the right parts of my brain to achieve this.
The songs themselves are short and varied... yet all chill. Some sound a bit more like a sunset and other sound more like the sun rising, but they all sound like a bright sunny day. The melodies are bright, the tempos never accelerate past a nice bobbing head walking down the road level... the whole thing just works.
I really need to listen to this album more. I enjoy the hell out of it every time it's on the table. I'm finding that I say that about a lot of the records in my collection as I'm going through them one by one. This one has been added to the list of great records I forgot about.
