Moonlust

"On Moonlust, the Chilean duo of Ives Sepulveda and Manuel Parra remain in the retrosphere but move in a different musical direction. That doesn't mean there aren't psych touches here, but they're subservient to sounds from French film music and European cafe rock from the late 1970s and '80s. In addition, the influence of French duo Air is utterly pervasive -- sans state of the art technology ... Though Moonlust is pleasant, it so actively tries to re-create the feel of its inspirations that it is more a distracted reverie than anything else".

"The Holydrug Couple's 2013 debut 'Noctuary' was an overtly psychedelic listen, smothered in hazy riffs and barely-there vocals. 'Atlantic Postcard', the opener on this follow-up, makes it quickly apparent that the Chilean duo still have their heads in the clouds. Its revolving synth pattern revolves relentlessly, before bleeding into the aptly named 'Dreamy', whose deft use of the bass guitar mirrors Kevin Parker's sleepier Tame Impala tracks. 'Moonlust''s remainder is enjoyably dozy - the reverb-splashed 'Concorde' in particular".
