High Times

Hazy, sun-bleached synth sketches recorded to cassette. A definitive blueprint for chillwave that sounds like a half-remembered summer vacation on VHS.

It sounds like a disco party happening three houses down while you fall asleep in a hammock.

A hazy, sun-drenched nostalgia that feels both comforting and slightly out of reach.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the disco-inflected groove of Phone Call emerges from a thick fog of tape hiss
The transition into Olivia where the synths feel like they are melting under a hot sun
The brief, bittersweet piano melody that anchors the short vignette of You Will Be Sad
