- Radiate-Ex Hex (One of 2019's catchiest indie rock tunes. The vocals, guitar, and drums contribute equally to the song's propulsive, great-for-driving momentum.)
- Sweet Sunshine Wine-Pearl Charles (1975-ish, Fleetwood Mac-style vocal harmonies are always welcome, as far as I'm concerned.)
- I Can Feel The Ice Melting-Yo La Tengo (The tune is from 2015, but its throwback arrangement reminds me of The Zombies and The Lovin' Spoonful.)
- Echo Park-Bedouine (I hear Joni Mitchell's influence in the lyrics and vocals of this 2019 standout. The outro of birds chirping closes the tune appropriately.)
- Golden Time Of Day-Maze featuring Frankie Beverly (Is there a more welcoming "time-to-chill" song in this genre?)
- So Many Stars-Eric Alexander (Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 had possibly the best intermingling of vocals and instrumentation on any version of this, but Alexander's take on the saxophone is strongly appealing, as well.)
- Easy To Remember-Roy Hargrove (A warm trumpet tone on a melodic standard, heard late at night. There's no way I can dislike that. Speaking of that...)
- My Funny Valentine-Miles Davis (...See my review of Roy Hargrove's "Easy To Remember.")
