The summer sun may be blazing at full blast, but that's no excuse for staying holed up with your AC. What you need to beat the heat and savor the fleeting days of the season is a playlist chock full of the summer's best jams. Lucky for you, Refinery29 has collected the ideal end-of-summer soundtrack (with downloads), sure to inspire midnight bike rides, beach side bbqs, and of course, the beloved impromptu dance party. Here's a sampling of what awaits:

White Rabbits: The Plot
A buzz-worthy band with anthemic OooooWaaOoohs that will have you hooked from the start.

Cass McCombs: That's That
An underrated unknown whose fragile and reedy voice embeds itself into your consciousness after one quick listen

Bat for Lashes: What's a Girl to Do
A prickly yet enchanting lullaby reminiscent of a time, and a love, long gone (sigh).
