Notes on underneath the pine by Toro y moi

K so hopefully this goes well... I got images to load again (maybe?) And I had this album ready since Monday lets get this done.

Tori y moi is a chill wave indie synth pop band that does stuff you could lay back and listen to the band is perfect for relaxing to the debut was awesome and they released an album this year so lets give it a listen:

1. Chi Chi. Its an Instrumental its very relaxing but still at a low key for a starting track I can picture being in a dream-like state and walking no hardly floating with my feet off the ground on my way to get a refreshing cup of water.

2. New beat. Imagine going to a party getting in your 79' low rider riding very smoothly on your merry way playing disco. This is the song you'd play while getting ready to raid the dance floor.

3. Go with you. If new beat was a song to get ready for a party this song is a song you put on after the party is over and you've had your fun (and your bringing someone home with you?).

4. Divina. This is a song that you listen to walking in a dark road after you break up with your girlfriend (or boyfriend) and she drives off and you have a long walk home.

5. Before I'm done. Nice acoustic add on if I might say. I like the balance of synth and guitar in this song reminds me of that one dream you get that your always thinking about during the day if you know what I mean.

6. Got blinded. Ahhh love the vocals in this song there alot of oooohs and ahhhhhhhs which go along perfectly on this song.

7. How I know. I like the sounds in this song and the bass thats accompanying them very chill and very vintage sounding. Accomplishment achieved. Accomplishment achieved indeed.

8. Light black. Weird beginning with drums getting louder then vocal coming in. If they wanted me to notice the drums they succeeded.

9. Still sound. Groovy bass line nice synth blips I like the fast vocals they give the song a unique touch that makes this song alot better.

10. Good hold. Piano solo beginning. Drums and vocals coming in at 0:25 secs and the song ending as quickly as vocals and drums begin with a whole bunch of filters choking the song right before it ends

11. Elise. Sounds very much like new beat in the beginning minus the awesome groove it had. It's alot downer than new beat till 1:10 the it gets upbeat but it's still sounding very sad maybe it's all the owwws an ahhhs in the background on the side note the guitar progression is pretty amazing.
