Toro Y Moi, "Low Shoulder" (2010)
find it on Causers Of This

We're off to a sleepy start to 2010, with a couple of good-but-not-AS-good albums from Vampire Weekend and Spoon, but the one set of songs in my shuffle pack that has consistently perked up my ears is the debut from Toro Y Moi. It's tempting to lump it in with the chillwave scene, but the RIYL on this is more along the lines of J Dilla crossed with Passion Pit. This song has more of the pop touches of the latter, but still with the woozy feel that's become so satisfyingly common in the last year. In fact, I'm already looking forward to rediscovering this sound in a decade or so.
