One listen and I threw myself into this one. Just got it done and it turned out well. I think I captured a form of the song quite well, though perhaps not the most obvious of its shape and sounds.

Hotel Pools’ “Coast” is from Fall ’18.

I hope you enjoy.

Warming up, rising. Rising repeatedly, a little depth and rising still. And something builds in the background, like the fading of memory. The beat comes in, and a little extra pulse, too. And the sounds flow and move, and the rhythm is nice. It’s all nice and cool, and it’s distant.

Everything feels muffled and faded, and there’s some nostalgia to it, or maybe some illusion. An ideal that’s not as ideal as one would like to think. Who knows. It still all flows and moves, and goes further muffled and disappears for a moment… almost.

The sounds fade back to the forefront and continue their steady drive along, among idyllic scenery, through windows overlooking the dark, together with many others alone, and the coolness of it all rings through. It speaks volumes and comes off as illusory, and is genuine, and everything stops and the song ends.
