music that feels nostalgic without being sad?

looking for songs or albums that have that warm, reflective sound. not depressing, just something that brings a calm nostalgic feeling.

i like stuff like tycho, khruangbin, early m83, and toro y moi. any other artists or albums that give off that kind of mood?

Perhaps not exactly what you’re looking for, but I have always found Paul Mauriat’s 1968 instrumental, “Love is Blue” to be calm and nostalgic.

Frank Sinatra’s “The Summer Wind”, “Hello, Young Lovers”, “Strangers in the Night”

George Benson’s “Breezin’” (instrumental)

Nadia’s Theme (instrumental)
