Ducktails - S/T

This brand of experimental pop goes really well with a pair of headphones and a heightened (ahem) state of mind. Nine tracks of distinguished lo-fi surf folk from Matt Mondanile aka. Ducktails. Not Not Fun Records describes the sound well:
"Plastic palm trees. Beach scene snowglobes. Airbrushed neon sunset hotel paintings. All shining examples of potent Fake Escapism at work, in real life. And if you’ve ever wondered what the audio equivalent of this kind of cheap coastal utopian simulacrum is, take a good listen to the recorded works of Mr. Matt Mondanile aka Ducktails, a crazy talented suburban New Jerseyan who serves up masterpiece after blasterpiece of shimmering, smoke and mirrors exotic fantasia, rainbow psych-pop muzak for imaginary helicopter rides over crystal lagoons and lost waterfalls." Lovely.
