Why Teen Dream By Beach House Will Always Be An Indie Classic

Beach House's 2010 album Teen Dream took them from indie darlings to a staple in the music industry. Their first album after being signed by Sub Pop (the record label behind albums such as Nirvana's Nevermind and the Postal Service Give Up), Teen Dream expanded the group's novel sound into a grandiose spectrum of swirling reverb and beautiful melodies. In this video essay, I discuss the importance of this record as well as explain some interesting facts about it's production.

My thoughts exactly. Teen Dream is still a constant listen for me after 13 years

[@-h2512]

Bro why did this make me cry

[@VAL3NTIN3]

Because you're dealing with something you cant resolve. Or you know what's bothering you , but you don't know what it is that you need to change. Constant battle inside you?

Great video, idk why people aren’t making more video essays about Beach House

[@rxnvaz18]

Excellent video! I love the inside info of the recording process. Beach House is my favorite.

[@dynamicrangeshow]

I appreciate it.

[@dancarter5595]

I own a Yamaha PS-20 precisely because of this album 😍

[@DefenestrateYourself]

Perfect album. Beach House’s magnum opus 🔥

[@TheLordcasio]

I had read that producer Chris Cody was actually more of a catalyst for this album. Pushing the duo out of their lazy-home recording efforts.

[@jorge2060shake]

What was the live version of silver soul you used as the background music for the video?

[@jesussidharta]

Thank you.

[@dynamicrangeshow]

[@vizorsband9686]

That recording room is sweet, great commentary on the production of the record

[@dynamicrangeshow]

It is a beautiful space

[@horuslupercalaurelian1569]

Is this about the Yamaha ps20 or Beach House?

[@mermaid1653]

[@stanley3642]

Really interesting video! This channel needs more attention

[@derekbeaulieu4738]

Easily my most listened to album of the 10's

[@hisanders4412]

This album always has me feeling some type of way, almost melancholy. I think it’s the way every song is written so beautifully, the lyrics are phenomenal, and extremely meaningful it’s mesmerizing. It makes me a bit sad but in a weird happy way where I feel like hope is around the corner. Idk beach house has just always been there helping me with every emotion humanly possible. They definitely made a huge impact in my life. Music is just so beautiful.

[@davidgaliata75]

One of my all time fav bands and albums.

[@g-mann5522]

Fantastic review!

[@EcneBanjo]

This album is virtually perfect, and they would still go on to outdo it with Bloom. That’s how insane of a run Beach House was (and still is) on. Walk in the Park and 10 Mile Stereo are unbelievable songs.

[@GustavoBido01]

Wow, amazing video.

[@ahmedareeb1576]

Amazing video. Methodical research. Fun facts. I just have one reservation - your pace. It'd be better if you slow down slightly and really enunciate your words and feel them while speaking. It felt rushed in parts which took away from such great research.

[@davifks]

one of my favorites

[@danielvieira3186]

great video!!

[@zerodude4455]

Dope

[@dynamicrangeshow]

Thank you!

[@DoktorKatzeKatzkopf]

Great video - thank you!

[@alanhansmannkurtcobain8811]

Nice video.

[@VAL3NTIN3]

Yea. I don't know why people like this album that's why I'm here. It didn't hook me on the first listen like Depressing Cherry and ONCE TWICE MELODY
