Hexlove Pija Z Bogiem (2009, Dreamsheep) RIYL = Kemialliset Ystavat, Akron/Family, Excepter I've been meaning to get around to a Hexlove release for some time now. Hexlove is the artistic guise of Mr. Zac Nelson and after listening to his work as the drummer of Who's Your Favorite Son God, I was sure that anything else this guy put to tape, whatever it was, would be a awesome. My introduction through Pija Z Bogiem proved my assumptions to be true – pure awesomeness. Pure madness. Purely ridiculous madness and awesomeness to the [...]

After missing my train back to Connecticut the other night, I found myself stranded in the bowels of Grand Central Terminal with little distraction but the minutes filing away in the late evening crossover. Listening to The Floodlight Collective then did not challenge the inactivity around me. Instead, it was a backdrop to the things passing through my line of vision. It was late: the blear in commuter's eyes reflected the meandering stroll the record plotted through my ears. As the train began to move through blackened northeastern towns, the density of Lockett Pundt's creation maneuvered right by [...]
Lotus Plaza is the solo outing of Deerhunter guitarist Lockett Pundt , and yes , it does sound like band mate Bradford Cox's project Atlas Sound, but Pundt's balmy atmosphere on The Floodlight Collective stands in direct opposition to Cox's self-described fall/winter sound. Pundt, having been the inspiration for many of Deerhunter's tender moments, proves to be wholly capable of producing his own brand of sedate nostalgia. Keeping with the sock hopping doo-wop debuted on Microcastle , these ten tracks further explore the ambient tidings that narrated half [...]
Lotus Plaza - The Floodlight Collective [Kranky; 2009] Rating: 2 out of 5 stars Deerhunter guitarist Lockett Pundt uses Lotus Plaza as an outlet for his ambient shoegaze experiments, much like how his band's frontman, Bradford Cox, uses Atlas Sound to satisfy his artsier tendencies. The comparisons between the two side projects of the acclaimed indie-pop outfit don't stop there; to call Lotus Plaza the 'little brother' of Atlas Sound would be an understatement. Perhaps encouraged by his spectacular contributions to Deerhunter's critically acclaimed 2008 [...]

Lotus Plaza - Sunday Night From the solo debut of Deerhunter's Lockett Pundt, this is a dreamy take on vintage American r&b and doo-wop much in the same vein as bandmate Bradford Cox's solo act, Atlas Sound . The album as a whole blends together elements of glitch and shoegaze in a hypnotic, ethereal aesthetic best described ( elsewhere ) as "squinting into the haze". The track These Years, for example, does a particularly good job of channelling the echo chamber effect of the Boards of Canada classic, Olsen. The album, The Floodlight Collective , is [...]
From the blurry, sun-dappled backwoods of camp Deerhunter comes a delicate treasure, the first album proper from guitarist Lockett Pundt's Lotus Plaza. Keen fans of the band already know that Lockett is a talented creature (and he is something of a creature, looking for all the world like a newly hatched elf-child) having written the marvelous 'Strange Lights' and all. It's Lockett's backing band Pundt's debut will have reviewers abusing their thesauruses for all sorts of synonyms for the words 'beautiful' and 'dreamy' (the sort of words [...]
Οι Deerhunter ήταν σαφώς ένα από τα ονόματα που σημάδεψαν τη χρονιά του 2008. Ο τραγουδιστής τους Bradford Cox , ο οποίος εξελίσσεται σε μια από τις σημαντικότερες μορφές της νέας ανεξάρτητης αμερικανικής σκηνής ήταν βέβαια αυτός που συγκέντρωσε πάνω του τα περισσότερα βλέμματα, καθώς κυκλοφόρησε κι ένα ακόμη άλμπουμ, με το solo project του Atlas Sound . Όπως συμβαίνει λοιπόν στα περισσότερα σπουδαία συγκροτήματα τα τελευταία χρόνια, οι σημαντικές μορφές μέσα στο συγκρότημα είναι [τουλάχιστον] δύο μέσα στους Deerhunter, και η έτερη μορφή είναι ο κιθαρίστας Lockett Pundt , ο οποίος ηχογράφησε και κυκλοφορεί [...]

Look at that for a gorgeous album cover, all aching orange memory and double exposed sadness. Unsurprisingly it comes from the Deerhunter stable. They'd be the band who are building quite the career from their strange and sickly childhood memories. This time it is guitarist Lockett Pundt's turn to knock out a solo release under his Lotus Plaza moniker. Keen Deerhunterphiles will know that Lockett has a knack for swirly weirdness and is behind a few of the memorable tunes on the gang's full-length records including the musical goose-bump generator that is strange lights, my 3rd favourite song of last [...]

A Reminder
A ReminderAnother record I've been enjoying a lot so far this year has been Lotus Plaza's The Floodlight Collective . Lotus Plaza is the sideproject of Deerhunter's Lockett Pundt and with The Floodlight Collective he has created a wonderful little record full of gentle, dreamy psychedelia. While reminiscent of some of Deerhunter's more mellow material, The Floodlight Collective flows and meanders in its own direction. As far as mood goes, the record actually reminds me a lot of Boards of Canada's classic Music Has The Right To Children . Both records have a [...]
