Much of the music produced nowadays is so totally over-manufactured, auto tuned, airbrushed, and basically made into a glossy representation of what a song should be. There's nothing wrong with some factory made pop music once in a while, but sometimes you need to just drift away, lie in your room for days on end and do nothing. You don't want Taylor Swift screaming 'I'M FEELING TWENTY-TWOOOO' in your face whilst you're trying to zone out, so this post is about dreamy yet distorted and raw tracks that will lead you by the hand to humid summers overflowing with hormones and still air.

1. Salvia Plath by Teen Suicide - a love ballad in it's own form. fuzzed out, dreary vocal lines over bleached riffs and a simple drum loop. Elements of the song don't really line up but still manage to fit together as though they were meant to be.
2. Inside You by Elvis Depressedly - A scuzzy guitar track with beautifully layered vocals.
3. Maybe by The Aquadolls - The aquadolls are a favourite of mine, and 'maybe' is one of their more downtoned, rough-around-the-edges songs.
4. Young Daisy by Boy Crush - echoing, quiet vocals accompany a single electric guitar. More poem-like and eerie than the other songs featured on this playlist.
5. Foreign Films by Mesita - a song that celebrates the high school rejects - the people who weren't born to be prom kings and queens.
6. When'd You Find Me by Arrange (Ricky Eat Acid Remix) - listen to this one surrounded by incense and fairy lights, or in a dark room at two in the morning. trust me.
