Parade of Lights and Passion Pit
Today I have music for you by the band Parade of Lights. This band is definitely what I would consider a synth pop group. But what I like about this song is that there is a good mix between tangible band instruments and the synthesized sounds. This song has that kind of transcendent feel to it. It is the kind of song that makes you feel like you are really feeling the world around you as you explore the world for what seems like the first time ever. The way the synth has this bubbly and catchy sound really gives the song that tabula rasa kind of sound. This song really uses the instruments in an incredible way. The guitar and drums are heard pretty clearly throughout the entire song. Especially during the chorus, we hear that heavier guitar sound that is not necessarily a crazy solo or anything, but still has a presence. And then of course the synths and keyboards create that filler and supporting bass which kind of help the entire song stick together. The vocals in this song are sligh...
