Beach House release their 8th album titled Once Twice Melody. Once Twice Melody, the first album produced entirely by Beach House, was recorded at Pachyderm studio in Cannon Falls, MN, United Studio in Los Angeles, CA, and Apple Orchard Studios in Baltimore, MD. For the first time, a live string ensemble was used, with arrangements by David Campbell. Once Twice Melody was mostly mixed by Alan Moulder but a few tracks were also mixed by Caesar Edmunds, Trevor Spencer, and Dave Fridmann.

Beach House must have known we wouldn’t be able to wait for their cinematic dream pop, so they’ve been releasing their album in chapters with the full album due next week (available also as a fancy box set version). Their sound is more expansive than ever, perhaps due to the fact that they worked with a live string ensemble on this album.

FFO: Broadcast, Grizzly Bear, Broken Social Scene, Deerhunter.
