Weird 'n' Warpy, Psychedelic Rhythms...

Noticed a little micro-trend of artists working in this kind of sound over the past few years. Some sort of offshoot of chillwave mixed with a dubby, melting-record sound. Found a few examples, are there any more?

The Congos, M. Geddes Gengras & Sun Araw - Sunshine

High Wolf - Wild At Heart
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdfR6dwgDHI

Atelje - Ode To Studio
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IBkeCxaX-8

Panda Bear - Mr. Noah

Neon Indian - Laughing Gas

Probably a few more things too.

that whole congos/sun araw/m geddes gengras album is awesome and very woozy dubby psychedelia, well worth checking out if you like "sunshine", same goes for basically all of sun araw imo, he's kind of been a constant presence in my life for the past year or so when i need this heavy dubby spacey vibe. on patrol is prob his best album, though most of them are good. i haven't really checked out his most recent ones though

yes i like his stuff... to an extent.. i mean, he had a sound and he does it well. i would like to hear where he takes it.

the first Peaking Lights album has to be some kind of apotheosis of this sound, and Forest Swords.

also you'd probably like this record that i've been pushing on people, for the weird rhythms and analog dub: https://leavingrecords.bandcamp.com/album/a-shapeless-pool-of-lovely-pale-colours-suspended-in-the-darkness

I like the sound of that, but ... her name is really Smurphy?

lmao

haha. it's better than High Wolf, although i'm enjoying that track.

listening to High Wolf this morning for the first time was what prompted this thread.
