I love Washed Out. It makes me proud to hail from the same musical place as the person who birthed one of the first significant genres in this millennium. Chillwave is not a fad, it’s a state of mind and outpouring of pleasant vibes. It cannot be denied. It has never come from an especially sexy…

Enter the Hopscotch Music Fest’s recap video. Directed by good guy Tim Kiernan, this mini-documentary of that magical September 2010 weekend in NC gives us chills. They used a live recording of Bear In Heaven’s festival performance of “Lovesick Teenagers” to...
