PAINTED PALMS – HORIZONS (180 GR)

On their sophomore full-length, Horizons, electronic duo Painted Palms draw inspiration from a number of sonic palettes – the song structure of ’60s pop, ’80s synths, the hypnotic vibes of early 90s Creation Records bands like Primal Scream and Happy Mondays, and the beats of early 2000s Southern hip hop – to create a panoramic pop sound that is uniquely their own. Mixed by former DFA house engineer Eric Broucek (LCD Soundsystem, Classixx), Horizons is the work of two musicians who share a singular focus and absolute trust in each other’s talents.
