Atlantic At Pacific leaked tracks.


Atlantic at Pacific's upcoming full length album "Weddings" will be pretty damn good if the leaked tracks are anything to go by.
Released by Alchemist Records its out August 24th.
Its spacey surf Chillwave sparkling like Brain Eno taking a trip with Ernest Greene from Washed Out then doing an album about it. Here are two tracks to download free from the album that the label sent me a few days ago. (just right click and save.)

Blackbird Blackbird is really busy!

So Bye Bye Blackbird has had a name change to Blackbird Blackbird, it doesnt matter but it confuses your Last.fm scrobbling a bit.
I love that this artist is releasing music so quickly and is realeasing it for free! Its music business 2.0 but mostly its just great chillwave music!
He's so busy, first there's a new EP fittingly called "Let's Move On Together" which is free to download from the Blackbird Blackbird Bandcamp.
There's also a Blackbird Blackbird/Treasures split coming out on Double Denim records over here in the UK on 23rd July. A collaboration with someone from Mathemagic (another great chillwave artist) and a future collaboration with Foxes In Fiction. Plus there's supposedly still the Atlantic at Pacific and Blackbird Blackbird musical cross pollination as well.
There's a track out called "Twin Flames" with Kiss Kiss Fantastic too and a new solo track out called "Hawaii" both of which you can download for free from the Blackbird Blackbird Tumblr.
..And if you're so inclined you can follow him on Twitter.
SO MUCH!!

Lemonade Dance Part and Echo Lake!

So.. news about my last post, Blissed Out is actually a collaboration between Bye Bye Blackbird and Atlantic At Pacific which has now changed into another project called Lemonade Dance Party! This too will soon be renamed as, according to Atlantic At Pacific, it was a drunken mistake!
It might seem a bit weird blogging about a project that will soon change into something else but when the music is this nice it just seems right.
I think what I'm trying to say is keep an eye out (and an ear) for what these bands do next, because it can't help but be going somewhere great!





Closer to home than LA this time and you should also definitely listen to Echo Lake, a four piece based in East London that deliver an epic wash of lo-fi, brimming over with reverb and shoe gaze based ambiance.
Coming from the same place as Real Estate, Beach House and Porcelain Raft more than the synth based world of say Neon Indian, their song "Everything is Real" will take you away on a balloon ride over hipstermatic landscapes of colliding continents and distant sun splashed rivers. Great stuff.

More Chillwave from Atlantic At Pacific!


Found another brilliant Californian Chillwave creation, Atlantic At Pacific from Santa Cruz.
He has an EP called Weddings coming soon this summer on Alchemist Records, an artists music collective.
In the meantime he has 2 tracks on Bandcamp to download for free:
here and here.
This is great chillwave stuff, get it, pop it into a playlist and drift off somewhere fun!



To remind you of how good the top players in this scene can be here is Neon Indian playing "Should Have Taken Acid With You" live in February of this year, I dare you to not get it stuck in your head!
