I could say something really cheesy about summertime but I’ll refrain. Let the music–old and new–speak for itself.

What was originally meant to be a “new releases” playlist morphed into an excuse not to study for finals which further morphed into a playlist of summerish jams. This (more likely than not) will usher in a series of playlists with summer choonz or whatever. Smells like summer, folks. Don’t forget to wear sunscreen and stuff.
