Review: Neon Indian – Psychic Chasms
by admin on Oct.05, 2009, under Reviews
The poorly named Neon Indian has managed to create a dreamy, saccharine sweet album that encapsulates lazy, youthful summers perfectly. Synthetic and sweet, no one element overpowers another, with vocal, synthesizers and drums coming together to make a smooth mix that is calm and calculated.
Lyrically, the album holds onto one emotion through out the entire album, which makes the album easy to listen through, although a bit boring on repeat listens. Musically, the washed out synths work perfectly with the Alan Palomo’s vocals, creating atmospheric, colorful songs that flow together to create a very solid album. B+

Hey guys, I'm Benco
Welcome to my site. My name is Benco! I make synthpop music and live in Portland, Oregon. I have two albums you can download from my site: Let's Own the Scene and B&. I think they're pretty great!
Twitter- Thebes Kevin Blechdom album is really good! A more heartfelt, interesting Regina Spektor. Also, it's called Gentlemania.
- Crazy Benco-flavored bargain over at Amie Street: The Soundness of Sleep for 75 cents! http://bit.ly/7M8oTt
- A music video approaches: http://bit.ly/49IvaK It's for a track off my latest album. Woot!
- Whoa whoa whoa, go download a track of my latest album here: http://tinyurl.com/tsos2 It's my favorite one off my new album!
- Working on a video for The Soundness of Sleep: http://yfrog.com/1rw1wj

- Can't we be beautiful just this once? Can't we live for moments and let moments live through us. We'll be vessles, invisible and seamless.
- Have you downloaded my other album yet? It's called Let's Own the Scene: http://bit.ly/2XbaFj Totally danceable.
- So, after giving it a million listens, I've determined "It's Boring" to be the best song off @teamyacht 's See Mystery Lights.
