A2B Beach House - Teen Dream
About this Event
Presented by Mystery Train, this A2B session will dive into Beach House's third studio album Teen Dream, released in 2010 by Sub Pop Records. The influential record by the inimitable band will be listened to and discussed in historical context—2010 was a big year for Tame Impala, Arcade Fire, Vampire Weekend, but also Katy Perry, Kesha, Bruno Mars, and Justin Bieber—what came before, and what came after? There will be songwriting and production analysis, a little bit of music gear talk, and a whole lot of meditating on the power of nostalgia in music, and the role of tech as mediator of spreading influence and inspiration. We’ll also discuss the issue of lean-back vs lean-in listening, especially for "dreamy", "fuzzy" genres of music (dream pop, shoegaze, atmospheric music).
A2B is Eaton's ongoing vinyl- sharing series, where guests are invited to speak at length about an important or seminal work in their music-listening expereince.
Mystery Train was a radio show on Eaton Radio HK running from 2023 to 2026 where they picked songs from the mystery box and talked about music life and everything in between.
