remember the genius ambience of The Postal Service's album Give Up?
well, a relatively new project just under a year old called Owl City, created by Adam Young, is like the next generation's The Postal Service.

I've recently been listening to Owl City's Maybe I'm Dreaming practically non-stop:
as well as Of June:
& I've been loving them. They're so mellow and beautifully ambient. I just can't get enough of them, or him :)
...So I need to listen to Owl City's most recent album, Ocean Eyes, which recently had a free single on itunes called "Fireflies."
not only are the songs beautiful, but so are the album covers, particularly Of June and Ocean Eyes.

ReplyDeleteyeah... I can't figure out how to not make it automatically play... sorry for scaring you :/
