About
<i>Paracosm</i> is the sophomore album from musician Ernest Greene—a.k.a. Washed Out—whose 2010 album <i>Within and Without</i> made him a prominent figure in the then-emerging chillwave scene. While opaque intimacy was a defining feature of his earlier releases, here even the title <i>Paracosm</i> (i.e., fantasy world) suggests the songwriter's developing inclination to write more expansive, open, and ornate songs. Parts of <i>Paracosm</i> move rapidly through rolling, lucid soundscapes ("It All Feels Right," "Paracosm"). Others take their time and unfurl slowly, patiently showing their inner layers only when the time's right ("All I Know," "Falling Back"). <i>Paracosm</i> closes beautifully with the disarming "All Over Now." While there's no doubt that this record also falls into the genre that Washed Out helped create, <i>Paracosm</i> is wider in scope and richer in ambition than anything Greene has released before.
