Description
Beck returns with a new album entitled Colors. Beck and his producer, Greg Kurstin (Adele, Sia), played all the instruments on the album themselves, fitting in sessions while Kurstin also worked on Foo Fighters and Halsey’s new LPs. Colors actually marks a reunion for Kurstin and Beck, as the former was a keyboardist in the latter’s band on 2002’s Sea Change tour. The album is cheerier and more experimental than Beck’s last LP, something attributed to his happiness with his wife, Marissa Ribisi. Those good feelings permeate the music, an experimental collage of bright pop sounds. Possibly the most aptly titled work in Beck’s storied discography, Colors unfolds in an intoxicating rainbow of auditory tricks and treats, making it a shoo-in for summeriest smash of the autumn season.

"Dreams" is my favorite Beck song in ages. I hope the rest stacks up as well.

"Up All Night":

Wow, been listening to this the last few days, and I'm loving every bit of it. It takes the melodicism of Sea Change or Morning Phase and dresses it up in the energy of The Information or Midnight Vultures. It's darn close to being a perfect Beck album. Or a perfect album, period.

Obviously not much buzz about this album but it is one of the best of the 2017, a must own. He continually hits it out of the park.
