August is a time for festivals, beaches, and hikes, but even during downtime, whether you’re resting in your tipi or basking in the sun, you need a fitting soundtrack. Here are the ten mixes we loved most in August.

For moments of introspection, Iwamaki and Lynne’s drone and experimental ambient mixes work wonders. If you’re looking for something that transitions from ambient into otherworldy polyrhythms and depths of techno, Sciama’s remarkable addition to The Memoir series, Adhémar’s mix for HOCast, Hogun’s set for Forsvarlig, and Carsten Jost have you covered. LVT and So crafted dancefloor-ready journeys, while ALiNA’s set brings back the vibe of daytime bliss from Outro Lado at the Waking Life Festival. For your next road trip, the Oleeva Records and Project Indigo showcase is the ultimate deep house extravaganza.
