‘Dream Pop’ Bowlegs Mixtape

Posted on 01 July 2011 by Bowlegs

When Bowlegs starts dreaming, be it day or night, we like to soundtrack it with pop – but it can’t just be any sort of pop, it must adhere to our strict guidelines.

So while we don’t actually have an instruction manual, we do know at least three of the following words must be suitable descriptions for the hopeful composition: blurry, ethereal, light, other-worldy, airy, floating, laid-back,  clouds, wandering, smooth, warped, sweet, carefree.

Those that are successful are duly inserted into the box entitled ‘Dream Pop’ – here’s a collection of them:

1. Sun Airway – ‘Wild Palms’

2. Young Galaxy – ‘Peripheral Visionaries’

3. Puro Instinct – ‘Luv Goon’

4. Secret Cities – ‘The Park

5. The Luyas – Too Beautiful to Work

6. Pure X – ‘Dry Ice’

7. Panda Bear – ‘Last Night at the Jetty’

8. Teen Daze - ‘Surface’

9. Love Inks – ‘Skeleton Key’

10. Beach Fossils – ‘Calyer’

11. John Maus – ‘Believer’

12. Wild Nothing – ‘Golden Haze’

13. Craft Spells – ‘After the Moment’
