i have been listening to lots of best coast, vivian girls, pains of being pure at etc., wavves, thee oh sees... basically anyone that hro is trolling but isn't chillwave? i think?

what else is good in this scene of people who can't play their instruments very well but sound v pretty and feedbacky and weeded out?

DREAM HOUSE

lol but this is kinda the indie equivalent

these 'euphoric', glossy production values all tend towards the same result tbh

posts v much in character

I guess the pop/house sonics are less fuzzy and more precise - but even the fuzzy stuff rarely has the balls to really fuck up the clarity - it's a very measured sort of fuzz

yup. except none of this stuff is pop or house.

yeah, just sayin'...hearing kelis and crystal castles and a few of the other things in the ILM 2010 poll it's clear that a very banal sonic 'joyfulness', all vocal harmonies and synthy sheen, is being sought by the tastemakers - dunno to what extent this fits in but I suspect more than a little

― I've been dancing since 9 and I'm tired and hungry (acoleuthic), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 14:13 (fifteen years ago)

oh not at all.

Kelis made a generic David Guetta dance pop record, I am talking about west coast indie with fuzzy guitars.

well then, I have ruined the first 10 posts of your thread and must fall on my claymore

― Ward Fowler, Tuesday, 25 January 2011 14:17 (fifteen years ago)

geir's much more consistent in his tastes, disservice to the man

oh yeah, sorry

A Sunny Day In Glasgow, if I must contribute properly

cheers ward!

i.e. they're good fun live and have great harmonies and make lovely dreamy fuzzpop that people are liking atm - I still think a lot of this stuff is the kind of dreamy poppy escapism which dancepop is going about nailing in a different way

― I've been dancing since 9 and I'm tired and hungry (acoleuthic), Tuesday, 25 January 2011 14:20 (fifteen years ago)

oooh i like no age

is "tennis" a post to the wrong thread, maybe that one about thinking of the most boring band name imaginable?

New Go! Team single, kind of.

I like Wild Nothing but maybe they're a bit too shiny? Like they're drawing on a slightly different strand of 80's indie pop. More Smithsy perhaps and a bit less garagey.

are The Joy Formidible fuzzwave?
