Washed Out - Paracosm

via http://www.factmag.com/2013/05/23/washed-out-returns-with-brand-new-album-paracosm/

oooh very lush! god this year is an unbelievable year for the world of electronic music

very tropical ! Wonderfull !

sounds nice. hopefully he can pull of a full LP this time; the bside of the last one was completely weak.

lol, just went back and checked out the last album and the bside is almost unlistenably bad. worse then i remembered.

sounds kind of overproduced... compression?

what b sides ? you mean Within and Without ?

The ep´s where wonderfull, didnt like the Lp so much

yes, the entire second half of the record (the side B of the vinyl). those songs are incredibly weak imo.

side A is banging though.

basically agree with you. his eps have been more convincing than his full length. Within and Without just sounded like a lush ep (side A) and some throw away bs (side B).

My day was made when I heard this announcement. Then the BoC video came out and my recent work related stress evaporated.

Of all the "chillwave" press darlings in 2007 Washed Out has become my favorite. Memory Tapes was the best in the first wave of releases and his work is good but I haven't found it as engaging. Toro Y Moi has been consistent and enjoyable but never my favorite. I never cared for Neon Indian's first album I've warmed up to him a bit with his second album. Of that scene though, no one has matched Washed Out, who I think just gets better in his production techniques with each release, and I have high hopes for this album. Summer will be amazing.

nice!

within without grabbed me by the balls, so yea, I'm psyched for this

i wonder if they will still sell it at Urban Outfitters like the last. (shudder)

the summer of chillwave was 2010 amigo

have you listened to small black? they just put out a new album that is clinging on to what's left of chillwave

Nice, I was just listening to Within and Without the other day, preview sounds nice....

seriously, this year has been just amazing so far, and still much of it left

If the whole album is gonna sound like that teaser, then I'm down.

dude you're right, I totally stand corrected

I haven't listened to their new album, "weird machines" is about the only track I listened to by them that I really liked

I already know I'm going to have this album on repeat. It's hard listening to this at work and not impulsively quitting so I can go to a pool and endlessly drink Mexican beer.

damn i was hoping it leaked...

Pre-orders today, 47 minutes ago actually. The first 250 LP copies come with a bonus color 7"...if still available (and I wish I wasn't broke so I could of bought it)

sounds like it is going to be a little different than the last

you would hope for some progression

for sure

It seems like touring with Beach House had an effect on his creative process.

^yeah, I think he's really progressed a lot in general, tbh Life of Leisure was rough sounding besides "Feel it All Around" - of his peers he closest to being a true bedroom producer

not as an immediate sound as the last album. which is probably a good thing for longevity
