TWO MORE FUCKING DAYS! I'M GOING CRAZY WAITING FOR SATURDAY! I never dreamed I'd see them in Singapore, much less in the same day.
Beach House - Silver Soul
Their brand of hazy dreampop already imprinted in us as their signature, they deliver it with the usual panache. Pouring their entire soul into this one, the syncopated keyboards dovetailing nicely with Legrand's ethereal vocals.
Lotus Plaza - A Threaded Needle
With a persistent rhythm and tinkly sounds, how can I not be hooked into the song? The rhythm subsequently forms the backing of the song, over and above the barely heard vocals. Elegiac in a rough way, the entire song feels hazy amidst a microcosm of intimate sounds, and it runs out amidst a dishevelled blast of intense repetitive sounds.
Deerhunter - Agoraphobia
A thoroughly enjoyable listen; comforting and warm. A slow tender piece that takes delight in its measured pace, preferring to let the music speak for itself.
Deerhunter - Desire Lines
Accompanied by a fat reverby guitar line, Cox reminisces about the nostalgia of youth, awash in careless freedom. And just when you thought what could get better than the first 2 minutes of awesomeness, a good 4 minutes of instrumental takes over. It's ponderous yet urgent, slowly seeping into your consciousness. Going on and on, you're sinking deeper and deeper, only for you to be jostled out as it gradually ends.

Was kind of disappointed with Deerhunter though, I suspect the sound system went haywire. And really jealous you got into the media tent, I really wanted to dash through the billion bouncers along the way, climb over the fence, just to get there.
i thought deerhunter was pretty intense. maybe you felt that way cos he didn't interact with the crowd enough?
the media tent was mehh. i initially thought i'd be able to meet ALL the bands, which would have been rad as hell.
Thought the bass was too loud and that overshadowed what Bradford could do.
How was it like in the media tent? Either way, it would be great if I could actually talk to Warpaint, Foals and Nick Offer! I assume you'll be going for Timbre Rock and Roots?
haha, who wouldn't want to? these guys are all awesome. :D
nope, i don't exactly listen to most of them and i've been to imogen heap before.
