South Carolina isn’t exactly a musical hotbed, so it’s not surprising to find it the home of electronic shoegaze one-man act Washed Out (aka Ernest Greene). This year has seen the resurgence of lo-fi, garage and shoegaze genres and Greene’s music takes those influences and distills them into something quite different and very new.There’s a sense of longing and distance in Greene’s somber, filtered vocals, but it’s what he does compositionally that makes Washed Out stand out. Backed by gently pulsing, Balearic-tinged disco, Greene’s voice takes on a new dimension.
