Ernest Greene makes music for the summer time, or more specifically (for those of us in wet climes) for days when the sun beats down and the only activity worth attempting is 40 winks. Whether he can make the smooth transition to songs about winter that the Beach Boys pulled off when they recorded one of the best Christmas albums that ever was is open to question but for the moment his sophomore ‘Paracosm’ is a chilled out tropical delight. First single ‘It All Feels Right’ is indicative of the fare on offer, a hazy lazy doe-eyed piece of electro pop with Greene at one with the machine through his various vocal guises throughout. With Washed Out you pretty much know what you are going to get but Green’s trick is that his songs are always so neatly packaged and wholesomely melodious. KD
