i loved this album but this track felt pretty weak/odd as a lead single and i only enjoyed it in context of the album, surprised to see it show up

This act has long since gazed itself to death.

So far most tracks strike me as adult and urbane.

They could use some deathgaze, come to think of it.

Peach: Bangs indeed, much more my kind of electronic than miss Hauf or Talabomachin. It's really about the first part and that sample for me though.

For a second I thought that was the same Stephen Bush that is now the Political Editor of the New Statesman and much cited on the UK politics threads but I think not. Stranger things have happened.

ha ha - Beach Trap House
I don't think I've heard anything that sounds quite like that tiny-xylophone-in-a-bottle refrain anywhere else.
It reminds me of Vitalic's 'Fanfares' a bit but, different agenda tho it may have, can't say it compares favourably with that myself.
― nashwan, Wednesday, 30 January 2019 13:39 (five years ago) link
I like this Beach House song but I tend to think of them as an albums act
― resident hack (Simon H.), Wednesday, 30 January 2019 13:41 (five years ago) link
Fanfares is all about the military snares and nothing without them deserves to be compared to it, favourably or otherwise, IMO.

I voted for this. Glad that other people also like it.

I didn't expect a track named after the Reykjavik airport to be italo disco. It's cool.

damn there was actualy some ILM discussion on lemon glow, but we had to go TSJ

I group this Kasper Marrott tune and 'Neutron Dance' together in my head but this one just sounds so much better on headphones or a big system. It's like a more euphoric update of 'Squance' by Plaid, or a signpost to a modern electrohouse that isn't awful.

Kinda think that's the Platonic title for an italo disco track in 2019

voodoo: you want to provide a link? the only lemon glow convo i found was of the "this rocks" variety.

YT's algorithm suggests a TED talk titled 'Pop Music Is Stuck on Repeat' as a palate cleanser after this track.

The Beths

guess it's finally time to figure out what the beths sound like
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:06 (five years ago) link
i was thinking of this thread, but it looks like most of the discussion is general album stuff, not lemon glow specifically: Beach House - 7 (2018)
― my tweet portal is whack (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:06 (five years ago) link
many xps
hmm this isn't the beths song i like
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:07 (five years ago) link
good drums
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:07 (five years ago) link
i gave the beths some album ballot love, and this is def one of the highlights, but i left it off my trax ballot
― my tweet portal is whack (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:08 (five years ago) link
good song

would have been nice if i'd been able to find room to vote for something by the beths

yeah this one sounding better today but still not the one i repped

voted for the album but this is an excellent representative
― resident hack (Simon H.), Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:12 (five years ago) link
Another 'voted for the album' one for me but this is a highlight of the record (along with 'Not Running').
― Gavin, Leeds, Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:12 (five years ago) link
if I was gonna vote for a single track it'd have been "not running" xp!!
more jazz students should start power pop bands

xp to voodoo: i think when we do the albums poll (if moka wants to that is), there should be lots more room for ILX commentary. as a community, we like to discuss albums and artists, not singles so much unless it's in the genre threads.
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:14 (five years ago) link
I voted for the Beths album but it occurs to me I don't know off the top of my head what a single one of their individual songs is called. It's probably the only straight-ahead indie rock record I needed this year and this clearly hasn't hampered my enjoyment of it at all.
No idea which song this is.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:14 (five years ago) link
beths album/song the epitomy of 6/10 decent indie. i mean sure it isn't bad music but...
that said it is a step up from sodding beach house
― imago, Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:17 (five years ago) link
i really really liked 'not running' off the beths album but i don't think it was even nommed. this a good song though
ooops heaps of xposts saying the same thing

it does have a jazz drummer tbf to brad
brad since you're a huge fan of charly bliss i can't believe you never got around to the beths album
― ufo, Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:18 (five years ago) link
as i suspected from the thread: they don't sound anything like charly bliss
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Wednesday, 30 January 2019 14:18 (five years ago) link
they're a lot more of a craft brew band than charly bliss
