Released: 10th July
2012
Label: Moshi Moshi Records
TL;DR: So much love for this EP.
Over the
last few years we’ve had to deal with some pretty shoddy attempts at
recapturing the freedom and the love of synth that was present in the 80s, but
finally, it seems British duo (ENGLAND REPRESENT!) Summer Camp has managed to
produce an absolutely great throwback to the 80s.
Jeremy
Warmsle and Elizabeth Sankey have created the best 80s sounding
instrumentations, with perfect production and extremely catchy elements. The
mix of happy, accessible sounds forced with underlying dark topics within the
lyrics come together to produce something that truly is wonderful to hear.
Warmsle
has used a mixture of classic 80s dance beats with very modern sounding bass
and electronic instruments, to produce songs that are sonically very
interesting, as well as being accessible enough for everybody to enjoy.
Sankey’s vocals sound really retro, and fit in extremely well with the music,
it makes for brilliant listening.
Always is
definitely going to be played many times throughout the remaining months of
2012, it’s just a much needed ray of sunshine that will succeed in cheering the
listener up.
