“Another exemplary showing from the Birmingham, Alabama duo, who channel ’80s nostalgia into breezy, blissful chillhop.”

resort realism - Hotel Song
resort realism is the lofi downtempo project of Birmingham, Alabama natives Crawford King and Robert Wason. Based out of a home studio in Irondale, aptly named “the Resort,” the duo combines jazz and post-pock instrumentation with the production styles of lofi hip hop to create hypnotic, textural, and immersive electronic music. Their debut album “resort realism” was released on April 16, 2021, following a livestream premiere performance on Brooklyn’s The Lot Radio. The album was quickly featured on Bandcamp as a “New and Notable” front page release, described by editorial staff as “exemplary…breezy, blissful chillhop.” resort realism’s dreamlike sound and surreal, self-directed multimedia content have gained them a global audience on Instagram, YouTube, and Spotify.
