RIYL: Nite Jewel, YACHT, Memory Tapes
Notes: An elusive new project from composer Alan Palomo, Neon Indian delivers equal parts synthetic nostalgia, summery dream-wave lullabies, and grinding guitar noise to create something eerier than the sum of its parts. The initial batch of tracks were the result of field recordings, record samples, and a collection of bizarre synth sounds. Soliciting the visual acrobatics of Video artist Alicia Scardetta, Neon Indian is setting out to be a multimedia maelstrom, creating music that provides a lush soundtrack to the deadbeat exploits of teenage ennui and reminding us of some new favorites Nite Jewel and Toro Y Moi.
