Neon Indian's "The Glitzy Hive" Is Psychedelic Boogie Of The Highest Order
Electronic grooves-man Alan Palomo BKA Neon Indian is back, folks. After a few short years of hiatus, Palomo began to tease his third studio outing Vega Intl. Night School (a nod to his alter-musical-ego VEGA,) subsequently releasing two new singles in the island pop styles of "Annie" and the spacey disco funk cut "SLUMLORD." But today Palomo (who can rightfully be credited for defining what is known as "chill-wave" alongside Toro Y Moi with his debut Psychic Chasms in 2009,) is aiming for your boogie bone with his latest offering "The Glitzy Hive," which premiered this afternoon on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 program. The new joint is a perfect compliment to these final rooftop soirees of the season, built over bubbling synth-bass lines, driving drums, a flashy four-to-the-floor mid-song break and an infectious chant. All making for one choice little groove that should have you on your feet in no time at all.
Hear Neon Indian's "The Glitzy Hive" below, preorder his Vega Intl. Night School LP today on iTunes and catch all of the party-vibes live and direct as his show makes its way across the states throughout the next few months.
