Electronic Pop | House
This caught me off guard since I think of Bibio as more of a front runner in the folktronica scene but this is a total rock jam which is begging for RAC remix. Think Phoenix-esque type indie rock. This track is taken from his most recent album, “Mind Boken”. Another stand out track for me on the album is “K is for Kelson”. Has this Jackson 5 meets Vampire Weekend vibe that is sticky sweet.
Remember Drivers Education in High School, and being subjected to video tapes that were produced in the 1970’s and the audio tracking on said videos always sounded wonky — not to mention just straight out weird? We’ll upon first listen to Bibio’s latest release, “Vignetting The Compost”, that was the first image that popped into my mind and made me smile. That alone is worth a post in my opinion.
Bibio fuses folk sentiments with soundscapes and dashes of electronic elements. This album is ripe for spring, the songs on this album just brim of sunshine and rolling grassy hillsides.
