Discovery - LP


Side Project Friday

Discovery is a side project between Vampire Weekend keyboardist Rostam Batmanglij and Ra Ra Riot frontman Wes Miles. I have no idea why an electro pop act would give their band the same name as a Daft Punk album, but hopefully they did that on purpose.

Either way, this is fun summer music with some sweet beats and multiple layers of sound. Orange Peel is a great opener, and their cover of I Want You Back by The Jackson 5 is eerily timely. There are some weak spots on the album but on the whole it's a lot of fun. Good music to spin while you drive to the beach or something.
