Album Review

Reviewed 2013-04-04
The third full-length release from Chaz Bundick’s indie-pop project Toro Y Moi. Lots of chillwave vibes with sensual electronic elements and a bit of R&B. Bundick now lives in Berkeley, but just because he’s a “local,” doesn’t mean that he wants to do a KZSU interview with you at Treasure Island. (Because he doesn’t.) But it’s cool. You gotta do what you gotta do.

I must admit that I wasn’t all that impressed with his first two albums, but this one really shines.

*1. Skipping piano-laden bass beat, gyrating riffs, great smooth vocals.
*2. Dancey, bouncy. Instantly catchy.
3. Mellow, a bit funky with 80’s synth lines and a bit of 8-bit.
4. Driving electro beat with light keyboards and sparse vocals.
5. Loungy and minimalist with a heavy bassline and chopped up vocal samples.
6. Midtempo metallic beat with staccato high hats and a bit of piano. Suave sincere vocals.
7. Poppy chillwave with light airy guitar plucking.
8. Mellow R&B cruiser with sunny keyboard accents and a retro vibe.
9. Sounds just like a long-lost FutureSex/LoveSounds B-side, complete with the Timbaland knockoff beat. Pretty cool though.
*10. Electro-saturated chillwave. Bright sunny vibes with chipper vocals.
11. Smooth minimalist indiepop with crooned vocals, upfront 808 drum machines and Vangelis synthlines.
12. Big, overproduced 70’s electrofunk sound with echoed vocals and excellent percussion elements.
13. Bubbly synth pop with a deep gyrating bassline.
