Another happy find, this is Castlebeat who hail /s from New York with a corking self released set by the name ‘VHS’ from off which we’ve found ourselves a tad smitten to the core by the disarming fuzzy glow prompting ‘Zephyr’. Hell’s teeth this is your classic C-86 pre dream pop collision, so many things rush to the recall such as a mellowing variant of Another Sunny Day or a more chilled bedroom confined Ultra Vivid Scene, that said in my mind’s eye, and trust me, we’ve been busy searching high and low for our cherished copy for comparison, the vague ghosting recollection of the Hoverchairs’ ‘hide and seek’ keeps haunting our consciousness. A gem. https://castlebeat.bandcamp.com/album/vhs
