  • Bio

    .. .... .......... .. Senior Recreation is John Greenwood and Harris Pittman mixing the best elements of Dntel, Ride, and maybe a dash of Postal Service (I bet they get that a lot). But those are serious compliments. Many bands attempt to blend pop and noise through keyboards, samples, and guitar wash and usually the lyrics end up taking a back seat. Senior Recreation are of the listenable type who do an excellent job at creating depth, saturation, and lyrical meaning without sounding like xerox versions of their peers. The first track is reason enough to listen to this 3-song EP. "Now That I Sleep Alone" is 6 minutes of sonic bliss. It stretches for miles with an epic guitar progression and wash that closes out the song, amazing tonality. "Standing On The Edge Of Now" is where The Postal Service nod comes in, but this is better. The acoustic and delayed guitar make it seem more organic and rich. A beautiful love song with plenty of room to breathe. "Airport" is a scenic-like instrumental that immediately makes you think of happy endings and deep blue skies. The song caps off the demo nicely. This EP starts big, really big and ends softly in a very heartfelt way. The themes and sounds to Senior Recreation are dreamy, lush, and modern. What makes their music so likeable is the blending of instruments, I almost think that the great guitar sounds alone couldn't keep this sound together on it's own. And the drumming (Sometimes a machine?) gets really powerful. If Long Beach continues to grow musically with amazing bands like this I just may live here forever. Highly recommended!....Reprinted from .. AutopiaMusic.com.. .. .. .. ..
