Garage/Psychedelic Pop: Whyte Horses - Pop Or Not 2016 (2016 CRC Records) Flac & mp3@320


As befitted one of the founders of the acclaimed crate-digging curios Finders Keepers label, Dom Thomas’ Whyte Horses were informed by a dizzying array of musical influences. This wide sonic palette of psychedelia, library music, acid-folk, Krautrock, Tropicália, yé-yé, and lounge was skillfully woven by "music-chronologist" Thomas into an accessible, hypnotic, dreamy psych-pop.

Whyte Horses’ first release was the single Snowfalls on the London-based label CRC in October 2014, followed by debut album Pop or Not in May 2016 (already released in a private pressing the previous year). Guesting on this brilliantly otherworldly debut was the Anglo-French vocalist Julie Margat (aka Lispector), who brought a healthy dose of Gallic cool to the proceedings. Thomas was also ably abetted on Pop or Not by the Doves’ Jez Williams, Ian Parton of the Go! Team, Belle & Sebastian’s Chris Geddes, and indie-psych maverick Jim Noir.(allmusic.com)


Very good debut by Whyte Horses with a lot of songs full of popsike candy...This is the 2016 release. Some songs are differently named as on the private 2015 release.

Enjoy
