Oregon Bike Trails - “High School Lover”

Plans yet? Cause this could easily be a summer cameo. And I already know everyone here in Sweden is counting down the hours for it. A day at the beach, slight wind but compensated by the warmth, a tropical wind safe to say. Oregon Bike Trails may be this summer’s Surfer Blood, though Zach Yudin the main guy behind the work from Santa Monica, CA is more Beach Boys-oriented while SB inclined more towards Pixies. “High School Lover” is a fresh though nostalgic spray on your face. Beck voxing on a Brian Wilson Californian surfboard fantasy! And it doesn’t end there.

It might be far more accessible but it can also be as dreamy as Panda Bear in layering. Of course the drumming grows far more catchy as it resembles The Lovin’ Spoonful’s “Summer In the City” or any post-May immortal tunes near that atmosphere. Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me, and I think he was quite right.
