Usually when I'm making a Summer mix I imagine sunset and cocktails. This time I wanted to create an afternoon poolside atmosphere.

Hi George, really enjoyed this mix. A particular favourite for me would be Feist's tune but to be honest, I really enjoyed them all! Thanks for this!
Thank you Gerard, glad you enjoyed it! Feist's lo-fi Bee Gees cover is a gem, so original and groovy!
Smooth ride. It had my head unwinding and my toe tapping from start to finish. Just when I thought my "to-listen" list was getting shorter, I'm left with so many new artists and sounds to explore. (Including Chic & the Bee Gees!) Thanks, George
Hi Marc, thanks for joining the Mixcloud party! I'm so glad you enjoyed the mix. And thanks for reading my commentary!
Enjoyed this all day long George! Unfortunately at work and not poolside. You are masterful at producing the vibe you're going for, and I've enjoyed being introduced to new (to me) artists yet again on one of your playlists! I look forward to these each season!
I'm glad I can still surprise you with new music and create a poolside in your mind! As always, thanks for listening!
A great smooth eclectic mix, George! It starts with the first two wonderful songs that I didn't know. I was also surprised by the Pet Shop Boys. I didn't expect a song like that. I also didn't know that you named yourself after one of their songs :) By the way, I really liked your thoughts that you wrote about some of the songs :)
I thought you'd like this one, Joe! Thank you for reading my notes about the music, and thanks for your kind comments!
Perfect afternoon music! I like those French guys from Paradis a lot. I played Recto Verso on one of my mixes a few years back.
Thank you Eddy! I agree about Paradis, the album is good from start to finish.
