Summer is finally here. Spring came and went, and before we really noticed, the sunlight started to stay a little longer and the air picked up that familiar warmth. Essentials Summer 2026 is up and it sounds like those heated, golden hours that seem to last forever once they get going. We curated 24 new tracks to drift you through your sun-soaked afternoons. Laid-back rhythms and unhurried grooves. Songs to blast while you relax by the pool. Feet in the water and not a cloud in sight.

Our continued seasonal release has been around since 2016 and Summer 2026 takes place in Old Port, a seaside borough of Chillville where the pace follows the tide and most things happen a little closer to the coast. Summer in Old Port is where everything comes alive. 

Whether you’re looking for some poolside grooves, some instrumentals to soundtrack the hottest days of the year, or just looking for something to spin to keep you and your friends company, these tracks can do exactly that. L'Indécis, DESH, Birocratic, Leavv, and plenty more soak up the summer with their warming sounds. Embrace the heat. Stay out a little later. Summer tends to encourage that of us.
