This little Teen Daze release is rather lovely. Yes it’s chillwave so no, it’s not going to be a trendsetter. Do you actually care though? I’d hope not. Here’s what the artist has to say about it:
“I know chillwave is a dead horse; people are already sick and tired of talking about the merit of the genre, and whether it will last and all that. With that being said, I know what these tracks are, and I know what label or genre they’d fall under. But when I listen to these tracks, I hear my friends: I hear Persona La Ave and Blackbird Blackbird; I hear Memoryhouse and Aidan Knight. I hear my influences: I hear J Dilla and Madlib; I hear Baths and Star Slinger. So call it chillwave, call it beat-hop, call it whatever. Just think about what, and who, you hear when you listen to it.”
It’s available for free over on the Cultus Vibes Bandcamp page.
