Dream pop

But I do appreciate the fact that this doesn't...

When a lot of shoegaze or dream pop bands try to go electronic, there are two lanes.

One of which is doing the curve thing, which I think Wishy does very well.

Or doing the very abstract, they are gutting a body of water, Spirit of the Beehive thing.

It has like a concept and Is it going to top my favorite Dive albums? Maybe not, but I think it's cool that they're trying to do something interesting here.

In a way, I wish it went more in that PC music type direction.

It's also just so strange to me to hear a Dream Pop or a Shoegaze record that has actual political lyrics.

They did

All right, we're going to...

Get into a bit of indie pop with some dream pop and maybe some psych tinges.

We'll see.

We'll start off with a new one from Park Company.

They're a duo from Denmark, I believe.

They are kind of shoegaze, dream pop style.

I feel like Denmark is putting out a lot of brilliant shoegazy, dream pop stuff at the moment.

Yeah, that was Snuggle with Woman Lake.

And my next and final song for today is one from Lindsay Buckingham.

My guest for this episode is LG of Brooklyn Bay Shoe Gaze post-punk band Dead Leaf Echo.

We get into some of his musical background, some Deadleaf Echo history, the current state of shoegaze, and of course, the big Dream Pop Shoegaze Festival.

I have a Dream Pop that is happening later this week in New York City, which Deadleaf Echo will be a part of.

It's a great traveling shoegaze festival that just had dates in Raleigh and Richmond, and is the brainchild of some great festivals, promoters, artists, and bands, including...

Telepathic Windows, iLevel Events, Dig Dug Productions, BlackRock Coalition, and of course, The Veldt.

So it was like at the time was a very serendipitous situation.

about timing you know yeah

this is good timing yeah yeah yeah so tell me just because i know we're going to talk about the dream pop festival coming up next week you guys are part of which i think is really cool just tell me a little bit about yourself and how dead leaf echo came to be and what your musical background is and all that

But Friday's show at the Southgate Roller Wink looks really cool.

You could see saxophonist Sydney Houser perform music from her new Dream Pop fusion project with Nick Singleton.

You could also see Logan Richardson's ensemble, Blues People, and the Transatlantic Trio Thiefs on Sunday night at Hidden Hall in Fremont.

Find tickets at the Earshot Jazz Festival website.

The Manchester born multi-instrumentalist Xenia Genovese gave us some shimmering pop music in the song If I Could.

Followed that up with the Band Helen from the Pacific Northwest, some dream pop and shoegaze.

The lead single from their sophomore album, Linda's Head, Dead Shark II.

We followed that up with a band that's been around for a long time, very popular, The Avalanches.
