there's a specific type of "summer" that exists within the niches of performance assemblies for brand promoters during your physical education class and abandoned suburbia that cannot be recreated
when i think summercore, i am thinking of the weeks that people forget, the days that blur together. i am thinking in hyperspecifics. i am thinking of something you did or bought a summer ago that they don't make anymore, i am thinking of schools growing bare and mylar balloons losing their last bit of helium
i am thinking of empty parking lots and yellow tape in industrial zones. the smell of sweating off perfume/cologne, the inside of a hot car still new, the rubber of the bottoms of tennis shoes and spaghetti straps
like resedacore, my idea of summercore is a bit more of a feeling than an aesthetic, although they coexist
