Hi TAs!
I want to make a mix that reminds me of the summer during the winter (which is knocking at my door right NOW)
I already have a bunch of tunes I want to use, but I know there are lots more to choose from I either don't know or can't remember off the top of my head...
So please name some songs that have this special relaxed/happy/sunny feeling to them. Please no chill-out tunes (without beats), cause this is still supposed to become a dance-mix.
Once it's done, I will make it available to everybody here

Thanks for your input....

OK first of all ppk - resurection is very nice tune and i love it too, but this tune isnt a summer one, more like sad winter tune in my opinion.
summer tuns i recomend :

veracocha - carte blanche (original mix)
vengaboys - 48 hours (pretty old shit you should downloasd a new mix for thisone)
Skydive - Circles (K-System Azibi Remix)
Phasio - dive (radio edit)
dj red 5 vs. djs at work - rhythm and drums 2001 (really good summer shit)
Barthezz - On The Move (A Mix)

Thats all 4 now

Angelic - Stay With Me

very summery track

Jeez, put on some house musak man. Nothing like sitting in the sun with a fag and a beer listening to something deep and funky.

I guess that's a matter of taste, and I simply can't get the hang of "deep and funky"...(beer, too btw.)

To all the others: thanks for the recommendations you've made so far.
I have to agree that Barthezz is kind of "happy". But I'm looking for more "relaxed" tracks that you would enjoy when lying around on the beach or at the pool
