With their debut album, Pacific Standard Time, the Los Angeles duo known as Poolside (né Filip Nikolic & Jeffery Paradise) have crafted the definitive "daytime disco" soundtrack to the laid back LA pool party experience.
Soundcloud page for the past year, including a brilliant reinvention of Neil Young's "Harvest Moon", and a brief tour in support of The Rapture, the duo hunkered down in their poolside studio (literally) and cranked out one of the most casually blissed-out, fully realized debuts in recent memory. Equal parts tropical pop, Fleetwood Mac and Balearic disco, Pacific Standard Time's shimmering synths, slo-mo bass grooves and gauzy vocals will instantly transport you to the sunny climes of an idealized Southern California afternoon where the faint wafts of suntan lotion, sweat and chlorine mix together with the distant patter of wet footsteps and beers being cracked open.
Pacific Standard Time, so long as you can get to there in your mind. Poolside is here to help.
