When I was 11, my family and I started going to Vermont with my dad's friends and their families every August. We always had the best times there: we fished, we went tubing, we drank the best milkshakes. We also may have encountered many bugs and water that smells like eggs, but still, Vermont trips hold the best memories and the most scenic atmosphere. We haven't gone since 2015, mainly because dad's friends are having more kids, and because I started high school and sports and stress. This is the Comeback of the Century here. I need some songs that would provide a fun and relaxing mood while I sit at the lake: fishing, swimming in a tube, reflecting on nature. This proved to be a lot harder than it seems. I STARTED gathering some songs that I think would sounds good sitting at a lake...a lot of those songs are by Twin Peaks. I love their music and I feel like a lot of their songs have that garage, lo-fi feel. I feel like that would be appropriate for a lake setting. Here's an example of one of their songs. Come on. Just listen to it. Close your eyes. Imagine yourself. On. A. Lake. Doesn't it seem so perfect? I feel like a lot of the bands I put on this playlist so far kind of have a vibe already. Listen to this song by Hippo Campus I put on there. I sense that there's a vibe here, but I don't know how to use a single word to coherently describe it. I'll try the best that I can. Maybe "garage lo-fi small indie post punk chill teen rock." There. Hey, I said I'll try my best. I never said my best was amazing.
If you're willing to help me build this playlist, here are the songs I have so far. Listen to those, and then if you have a song that sounds similar to the vibe I've created, tell me! Comment on this post, tweet me, anything. It doesn't matter if it's one song or a whole artist. If any bands you like first the genre I tried to describe in quotations earlier, send them my way, too. The trip is in August, so I have a lot of time. Help a girl out please, and thank you in advance!
