Does Twin Shadow Make You Feel All Weird Inside?

I’m pretty much on board with Hipster Runoff: Twin Shadow = the most “harvestable band” of 2010. He makes you feel, kinda, all funny inside.

Here’s what Hipster Runoff has to say about Twin Shadow:

2k10 has been a ‘complex’ year. We’ve seen large scale indie bands release hella ‘meh’ albums. At the same time, we’ve grown a little bit distrustful of chillwave + lofi artists, wondering if they are ‘authentic musicians after seeing them live’ 4 the first time. Such high expectations to earn our consumer trust in 2k10. Feel like the ‘demand for musicianship/high production value’ has risen in 2k10, searching for a ‘series of complete mp3s’ instead of auto-glorifying a band that sort of ‘lucked’ into creating 1 high-listenable mp3 in Ableton.

Twin Shadow ‘seems chill’ and has been ‘brought to market’ with a series of MP3s, giving indie blog buzz fans a ‘better chance’ of talking themselves into his product after sampling 8-15 mp3s. In addition, his video ‘makes u kinda 90s hornie [via Calvin Klein]‘, so u can get into the conceptual nostalgic images of youth.
