BLUE HAWAII
BLOOMING SUMMER (ARBUTUS RECORDS)
First time on vinyl for the 2010 debut by Montreal's electronic pop duo BLUE HAWAII. Raphaelle Standell-Preston (also of the dream pop band Braids) and Alex "Agor" Cowan's first release under the BLUE HAWAII moniker "Blooming Summer" was inspired by the pair's travels in Central America.
"Blooming Summer is the perfect chillwave record, taking the tropical pop fun and translating it into something more than beach photos.
It goes beyond being the vintage electronica sound we've all been tuned into over 2010's course by throwing panging honesty into the mix.
And with the execution of tracks such as "Lilac" and "Lonelyhearts" as touching as the theme itself, you're going to feel this." - SPUTNIKMUSIC.com
