oh shit this is life of leisure thread i thought we were in within and without
@robertsona this ep for sure defines the feel good summer vibes of the ~2011 period for me, epochal is a good way to put it

Those laid back summer vibes seem so out of place for Portlandia. I mean, kudos to Fred Armisen for having his ear for good indie pop, but I'm always kind of confused by the presence the song.

I mean that song is such a "'hipster'/'pitchfork' classic", I can see the fit in terms of ethos

It's definitely hipster, but it's so sunny and beach-y it feels California hipster rather than Portland hipster ya know? It doesn't feel quirky and weird enough.

Ha! Yeah, I think that's part of what made Washed Out blow up the way it did, and in a roundabout way led to me discovering it.
Which beach do you live by?

I really love this album and I wish i could find something similar to this.
