{"product_id":"costasol","title":"Costasol","description":"\u003cp\u003eTVAM release a new EP \"Costasol\" for Invada Records. The 10” EP is pressed on translucent blue vinyl, and housed in a reverse board, spined sleeve. TVAM returns to the sun lounger to deliver a horizontal view from the pool of self-reflection. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoe Oxley, a.k.a. TVAM, offers “Costasol began life as two atmospheric interludes that I wrote for my last album, \u003ci\u003eHigh Art Lite\u003c\/i\u003e. Over time these ideas took on a life of their own and demanded that I take another look at them. I slowly began putting the pieces together and ended up with a track which became much more than the sum of its parts”. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe resultant Costasol is a song about longing, loss and regret wrapped-up in heatwave bass and shimmering guitars, all perfectly enhanced by Mona’s dreamlike vocal. TVAM self-released his much-acclaimed debut \u003ci\u003ePsychic Data\u003c\/i\u003e in the autumn of 2018, something of a cult-classic, the album joined the dots between Suicide’s deconstructed rock ’n’ roll, Boards of Canada’s irresistible nostalgia and My Bloody Valentine’s infinite noise. \u003ci\u003eHigh Art Lite\u003c\/i\u003e, released in October 2022 took a different tilt to its predecessor by emphasising the immediate and the personal. The colours were blown-out and the brightness was cranked up. It’s in this world where TVAM’s new Costasol EP exists. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFull of colour and noise, with a vibrant, distorted palette. Though the title track may find a home at some pool-side retreat, the subsequent tracks return to TVAM’s claustrophobic realm. Ephemerol evokes its own mutant groove, part \u003ci\u003eMidnite Vultures\u003c\/i\u003e Beck, part Pretty Hate Machine Nine Inch Nails, with Heart Attack and VHF rounding off this bold, bright, brief encounter.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Invada","offers":[{"title":"10\"","offer_id":50525221945675,"sku":"2124032","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/A2WPQUxw_e9434b9e_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1728031471","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/costasol","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
