Bwedge - Shrunken Head (2011)



/New Weird America, Tropical pop, Free folk, Psychedelic pop, Alternative pop/


Comment: Such kind of sound was firstly evoked by Avey Tare & Panda Bear circa 10 years ago. It was then named as free folk, freak folk, New Weird America or a bit some way else (probably the biggest musical revolution during my life time). However, all things will be changing in time and space - so such sort of sound is re-named as tropical pop nowadays. The most important aspect at it is to see the connection between those abovementioned styles. More concretely, pleasantly bouncing rhythms, exultant voice lines, psychedelic conversation between synths and guitars. By the way, Shrunken Head is a very good album by one 19-year-old guy from the USA.
