Moon Panda – “Superstore”
“Superstore” is the latest from duo Moon Panda, and if you’re having a *day* it’ll definitely help bring you down. Somewhere between dreampop and chillwave (they refer to themselves as ‘cosmic sway’), it’s just a sublimely layered track full of fuzzy lo-fi goodness. My friend likened it to “lil high + walking home at 1am.” Speaking to the track, the band had this to say:
“‘Superstore’ is about the micro moments of wanting to convince your partner of what you can be for them. I told our producer I wanted the chorus to feel like that scene in the movie ‘Challengers’ where they are outside and the trash is blowing everywhere. Total chaos and longing.”
I have literally never seen Challengers so I’ll just have to take their word for it.
You can catch the music video (with lyrics) below from YouTube. The track is also available wherever you stream your music, like Spotify and Apple Music. Their album, Dumb Luck is available September 26th in the same places. Definitely check that out and tide yourself over with their other two singles off the album; “Lost World” and “Butterknife.”
