AUDIO: First Listen - Smallpools Remix from DREAMING
By: BWW News Desk Jul. 30, 2013
Today, Smallpools shares a new remix from "Dreaming" (Zookëper Remix) below, their single of their 4-track debut EP which came out on RCA Records! Last week, Idolator exclusively revealed the first official music video for the single "Dreaming". The Los Angeles 4-piece started their first ever tour with Australia's San Cisco which is still going through Minneapolis, Denver and San Francisco before wrapping in their Los Angeles home town on August 13th. Neon Gold's Popshop West party will have Smallpools headline on September 4th (tickets on sale 8/1 HERE). The foursome consists of Sean (vocals/keys), Mike (guitar), Joe (bass) and Beau (drums).
Neon Gold calls "Mason Jar" "a sepia splash of power-pop that crystallizes into a starscraping smash before the verse even kicks in, as stadium-sized Of Monsters And Mengang vocals ride high on the buoyant flair of Smallpools' youthful, Two Door-esque ebullience." The indie pop band shared a "Dreaming" remix by The Chainsmokers HERE. In addition NYLON Magazine premiered the Charli XCX vs Twin Idol Remix of "Dreaming". Check out more from their Billboard interview.
Their first single "Dreaming" was produced by Captain Cuts and instantly shot to #1 of Hype Machine within the first 3 days of its revealing. You can hear "Dreaming" HERE. Smallpools explains his song by saying: "In contrast to the upbeat vibe of the music, the song talks about a moment where everything goes wrong in a situation where you thought you had it all figured out. A moment we've all experienced to some degree, but most often if we're lucky, in a dream where we get to wake up in a sweat and say, "Phewf, ok, that wasn't real."
