Teengirl Fantasy, erstwhile harbingers of chillwave, have opted for something more complex with their latest single “End”, off their forthcoming sophomore album Tracer. Nick Weiss and Logan Takahashi, who make up Teengirl Fantasy, built Tracer from the ground up, replacing samples with featured vocals from Panda Bear, Romanthony, Laural Halo, and more. After hearing a couple of their new tracks live earlier this year, it’s going to be a humid, dense journey. Start by letting the serene track unfold in the stream below.
Tracer is out August 21st via True Panther Sounds. Pre-order the album here, and catch their completely analogue live show at the dates below.
