Rostam Batmanglij of Vampire Weekend has teamed up with Wes Miles of Ra Ra Riot to create Discovery. Available here for download is “Osaka Loop Line” and you can listen to “Orange Shirt” on the band’s MySpace page, the only other tune available for listening.
While “Osaka Loop Line” has some interesting twinkling computer effects going on, the synthetic beats, vocal distortions don’t really do much for me. Overall I find this track as bland as I find Vampire Weekend’s live show. I find it to be a case of indie rockers jumping on the electronic bandwagon.
