"Endless Summer" is an album by Christian Fennesz, released on 3 July 2001 by Mego. It was reissued in 2006 with two bonus tracks and new cover art. Like most of Fennesz's other works, it focuses heavily on digitally manipulated electric guitar sounds, but with a much stronger emphasis on poppy melodies than on his previous releases. Endless Summer shares its title with a 1974 Beach Boys compilation and is often wrongly believed to be a Beach Boys remix album.
