The London duo Treasureseason is back with a new EP called XY (released January 19). XY is compact. The EP concists of three dreamy tracks with a charming retro/80s flavour. But Treasureseason clearly values quality over quantity and XY adds up to ten minutes of pure melancholic joy. An impressive feature about Treasureseason is how their retro flirt never becomes exxagerated. The soft synthpatches and the melodies sometimes feels directly retreived from the 80's synth pop scene but they are constantly merged with contemporary drumbeats and modern sounds. One thing to love about Treasureseason is how they open up for the electric guitar to take a lot of space, which feels almost like a revival. A band to have in mind this year.
