The music on Whistle Peak’s sophomore album, Half Asleep Upon Echo Falls, is opposite from the chillwave genre on the musical spectrum, but it still might be one of the most intelligently relaxed records I’ve heard in a long time. The songs mimic the album cover (shown above) of a boy and girl floating hand and hand down a clear river. Half Asleep Upon Echo Falls isn’t the flashy album you hear once and run off to tell all your friends about. It’s an album focused on controlled drifting, never giving into explosive moments just to grab your attention.
