I'm super into this surfy, 1950's beach, tropical pop lately (see The Drums). I think there's been this resurgence thanks to Vampire Weekend. I've been hearing Dinosaur Feathers played on KEXP (woot) quite a bit this week (it's only Tuesday!), and I dig it. Dinosaur Feathers uses these catchy clicks and pops that would make you think the tides rolled in like a move on a video game; recordings that sound like they were created in the State run beach bathroom. It's a sweet, Grizzly Bear sound that's a little less acid trip and a little more fun than anything; reminds me of sitting on ocean cliffs watching the sunset with my sweetie. In addition to radio play and, if you're an East coaster a small tour circuit, I anticipate we'll be hearing their music in the moveis, maybe by the likes of folks by Wes Anderson. Loving the tune, Family Waves, it'll probably will go on my "Summer Jamz 2010" mix.
