Good Beach Music

[PartTimeShinobi]

I'm going to Tobago here in a couple weeks - gonna enjoy the beach and (hopefully) get a tan without deep-frying my fragile complexion. However, in addition to the SPF-1000, I'll need some tunes. Can I get some good suggestions for beach listening? OCR stuff preferably, but if anyone's got some other good ideas I'm wide open. Nighttime listening is just as important as daytime, though, so suggestions of some good after-dark ethereal stuff would also be appreciated (Aphrodite Oceanus FTW). Thanx dudez!!!1

The OneUps Summer's remix,
Neskavartetten's stuff comes to mind,
If you would work the original vg tunes angle I'd recommend songs like Plok!, Mario Paint, maybe some Sonic, selected next gen FF and some Seiken Densetsu series.

Not from OCR, but ANYTHING by the beach boys.

Possibly the Beatles.

Thank you. I was gonna post Beach Boys if nobody else was. Also, Jimmy Buffet should be on any essential beach list.

As for vg stuff, the NESkimos did a beach rendition of Snakeman over at their website.

Mario and beach music=good.

Spekkio and beach music=weird but good.

Perhaps a bit techno, but McVaffe, and thus, all good.

Also, JIMMY BUFFETT.

EDIT: You're a tricky one, Murmeli.

There's one more that's on the tip of my tung, it's perfect for summer beach lounging music, but I just can't recall what it was!

Lotsa stuff by ATB, for sure.

I keep reading this thread as "Good Bleach Music"... Which is an oxymoron.

[PartTimeShinobi]

Ah, thanks much to all for the myriad suggestions. Any more good ones out there? Working the nighttime angle possibly?

You mean nighttime kick back/chill, or nighttime party?

[Chickenwarlord]

Dhsu's Booster Tarantino

DJP did Booster Tarantino for the record.

More the chill type, perhaps spacey - Aphrodite Oceanus by The Wingless is the best example that I can give of this sort of thing. Something you'd listen to if you're lying on the beach looking at the stars.

Ah, so he did. My bad.

You can never lose with some good reggae music, or something with nautical themes.
