Another installment in my journey into the old Sub Pop catalogue, 'Dreamy' is the fourth full length from Beat Happening, an indie pop trio from Olympia, WA. They were active from 1982 - 1992, and this record came out towards the end of their life, in 1991.
There were a couple of different colours pressed by Sub Pop. This one is turquoise, and the other is grey. I have it on pretty good authority that this colour is a lot rarer than the grey.
This is really different to the usual style that I would listen to. Even by early Sub Pop standards, this one kinda stands out. Some of the songs have a male vocal, and some female. I much prefer the female vocal overall, but the male vocal reminds me of, say, Nick Cave. Generally I would say that this is the kind of music I would expect to be playing in the bar in the Tarantino film 'From Dusk 'Til Dawn'. It's very different to anything that I would usually listen to, but I have become fasconated by it these past couple of weeks.
