The ever growing list of up-and-coming dream/chill-wave artists this year has been warming my heart. Neon Indian, Washed Out, CFCF, Memory Tapes and now Toro y Moi.
Toro y Moi is the solo project of The Heist and The Accomplice lead singer Chaz Bundick. Essentially if you dig any of the above artists, you’ll fall for these tracks.
MP3: Toro Y Moi- Blessa
MP3: Toro Y Moi – Low Shoulder
I came in a bit late with Bear In Heaven I admit. Formerly sporting School Of Seven Bells’ James Elliot, the band now stands as a four piece and their new album, ‘Beast Rest Forth Mouth’, is fantastic. Full of dreamy, epic synth landscapes.
MP3: Bear In Heaven – Lovesick Teenagers
MP3: Bear In Heaven – You Do You
Toro y Moi has made my day.
If you like this you should look up Pearl Harbour and Peaking Lights.
