Geodesics - 1984

Hailing from Austin, Texas the bedroom pop producer Geodesics has a thing for uplifting melodies to be filtered through space and time, so you can feel the analog-robotic sounds through you’re whole body! 1984 is a wonderful example of his sparkling electro/synth pop charade and a nostalgic (but in a charming, weird way) strictly danceable dream pop little masterpiece that grows in you from the first listen! If Keep Shelly In Athens and Washed Out started ‘shooting’ each other with tunes after a night full of alcohol, this is what we probably had in our hands! Pretty cool, right???

Listen the wonderful 1984 above and head over here to purchase the limited edition Geodisics EP.
