Check Out: Expensive Looks – “Moving Visions”

By Bryant Kitching on January 4th, 2012 in New Music, News

 

Expensive Looks is the pseudonym for up-and-coming New York-based electro wizard Alec Feld. A child of the Chicago house scene who grew up listening to everything from Motown to psychedelic rock, Feld’s sample-heavy brand of electronic music falls somewhere between the hazy nonchalance of Washed Out and the strobe-light intensity of Crystal Castles.

His debut album, Dark Matters, hits stores on January 17th via Group Tightener. For an early listen, check out the album’s new single “Moving Visions” (via SPIN.com). For fans of everyone from Passion Pit to Daft Punk, the track’s bright synths meld exceptionally with its subtly grimy back-beats and woozy, semi-audible vocals. Take a listen below.
