	Tape Deck Mountain December 15, 2009 Share Official Band Website

By the time we walked into the Swinghouse Studios in Hollywood for the Future Sounds WOXY Lounge Acts session with San Diego’s Tape Deck Mountain, the band was already plugged in and experimenting with sounds that mix Explosions In The Sky dynamics with dorm room bong hits perfectly. The band eased into “Ghost Colony” which oozed like the third set of Phish at Madison Square Garden.

If you are unfamiliar with Tape Deck Mountain, you won’t be for long. Touched by Pitchfork’s Forkcast as someone to keep an eye on, their full length, “Ghost”, dropped on Tuesday on Lefse Records, the label making a name for itself quickly with the likes of Neon Indian. The trio flows easily into “In The Dirt”, another track that takes a collection of sounds and ideas and vibrates outward into something epic.

Closing out the session is “Scantrons”, a track that’s made its way around the internets with numerous remixes, but the straight track proves that nothing beats the original. Three songs in the band seemed to just start to rev their engines, providing the perfect warm up rehearsal for the evening’s Rumble: Los Angeles performance.
