	Island girl Perfect in your world On a jet-ski topless you race Enticing us in your paradise I suppose And the hypnotizing song begins Enveloping softly you and I Set your sights on the tropical breeze Blowing through the lanai Reach your mind up and don’t falter Swim the thousand miles of sea Surrender in the sun - our father Take me to the river Take me to the ocean Sate me in the water Reach your mind up and don’t falter Swim the thousand miles of sea Surrender in the sun - our father Take me to the river Take me to the ocean Sate me in the water La la la la la la la la la la la la la

about

Call it "Ibiza Chill" or "Chillwave" this is definitely a summer Cafe Del Mar styled release perfect for your July listening pleasure.

Written about an actual encounter I had with a beautiful, young Hawaiian island girl circa 1988ish (I was young then too) 😏 Such beautiful memories of having childlike enthusiasm, being free and alone on an island with a natural beauty jetting through the waves on a Jet-Ski.

We spent the weekend together sunning, and surfing all day. I dragged the mattress off the bed onto the balcony and we slept ever so peacefully spending the evenings under the stars.

The sky looks so different at night when you are on a tropical island. I really tried to capture this moment for you and translate it into a musical poem. Go out there and have these experiences yourself, it's why we are all here! 😉🙏🏼

Lost Summer (Album)
by The Future Kids

The tonal quality & balance of the synths vs the drums are absolutely perfect. I also really vibe with the kickback nature of the entire A. The artwork is stunning, I really feel like I'm back in '82! Skyko

New World
by FM Attack

This is a couple of years old, but it stands out because of FM Attack's superior production skills. There are also two vocalists featured and some talented guitar work. Highly recommend a purchase! Skyko
