Daydream is a beautiful example of well-worked EP. Each track showcases the talents of the band wonderfully. The EP is quite obviously produced by Andrew Goldstein (The Friday Night Boys/Hot Chelle Rae/ Selena Gomez), but when is that ever a bad thing? The Endless Summer definitely went in the right direction when choosing to work with him, especially when you take into consideration the magnificent brain-child that Daydream is.
From the opening title track, listeners will be absorbed in the up-tempo sound contrasting with the bitter-sweet lyrics. Each song begs to be sang along to, and it's easy to find yourself doing so, even when the music stops. Along with being incredibly catchy, each song is ambiguous enough that every listener can find something to connect with.
"We are really hoping that the listener can interpret the songs on an individual basis. It is amazing to see that even for me different songs have taken on new meaning because of new experiences," expresses Nick Bacon, the band's vocalist.
The track that has been classed as the most "stand-out" is "Satellites," which has earned radio-play as far as Japan. The Endless Summer recently released a music-video for "Satellites," which will be played nation-wide in Journey's stores beginning in April.
While each song is ear-catching in its own right, one track that sounds poised for summer-time is "Fly With Me," a track that easily belongs on a Road-Trip Mix.
Along with that, if you're seeking a "break-up anthem" of sorts, one song to pay attention to is "If You Wanted."
Daydream is a perfect follow-up to The Endless Summer's previous EP Fairweather. While there is a noticeable change of pace, fans will not feel jarred in any way. If you haven't already listened or bought the EP, you can do so at The Endless Summer's official webpage.
