After a four-year hiatus, Vancouver-via-Brazil shoegaze band Palm Haze, made of Anna Wagner and Lucas Inacio, makes a comeback with a new single, “Blue Moon Bay” via YHS Records, the first teaser from a currently work-in-progress studio album slated for release in early 2025.
“Blue Moon Bay” is a song about the infatuation between strangers who immediately, albeit briefly, feel in love.
A seamlessly syncopated rhythmical electronic-organic interchange shapes and heightens the surreal metaphysical and sultry atmosphere in a deeply suggestive pulsating pathway, blending imaginative Trip-Hop and Shoegaze with IDM suggestions.
The song wobbles and winds through punchy shuffling drum patterns, rugged emotive bass riffs, insistent slightly discordant, rippling and swishing shimmery guitar textures laced with twisting synth melodies, pulsing wistfully alongside a male-female airy vocal interplay, blending vibrant dreaminess with distorted obsessions, and whispery drowsiness to conjure a suggestive romantic ephemeral hypnosis.
