Camouflage Lodge

camouflagelodge

Camouflage Lodge is a new one-man project from the keyboard player from one of our favourite Indie-electro acts, Tubetops. Kevin Bendis has taken on the Camouflage Lodge moniker to put together some really sweet summer ElectroPop tunes and has just released his début EP, for free. Check it out.

The ‘Old Haunts’ EP hold four tracks of hazy, blissed out synthesizer IndiePop with a chilled beach theme running through it. From the opening track, ‘Séance On The Beach’, the EP conjures feelings of nostalgia through the liberal sprinkling of Indie guitar amongst the Dreamwavey synths. Admittedly sometimes the EP does veer into slightly Indie dirge territory, but when Camouflage Lodge hits the good weather, good times, retro Pop vibe, he hits it perfectly. Definitely one for the coming good weather.

Tubetops

tubetops

Brooklyn based four peice Tubetops are funky, catchy, nerdy, DIY and quite handy with a synth.

They’re gearing up to release their début EP in December, seven tracks of varied and eclectic Indie-Electro that flows from jangly Indie to Trip-Hop to LA Funk. The self-titled EP is a hard record to pin down, some of the tracks are so stylistically different from one another, yet Tubetops have a certain warmth, and a certain sound, that seems to tie it all together. Despite the different moods the is a a strong vein of Funk shooting through the collection, tracks like ‘Aquamarine’ and ‘Here With You’ are approaching that particular LA Nu-Funk inspired brand of Dreamwave, whilst elsewhere their New York Indie roots shine though in summery IndiePop stormers.
