I came across this album in my early 20's and at that moment of my life I felt it aligned so perfectly. I am now 30 year's old and the feelings/memories that this album brings back to me is incredible.. I created a lot of art from this album..I felt so deeply from this album..it still brings me peace. I am married now with a 3 year old, but love to put this on while im cleaning as a reminder to myself that I used to be a little wild, and because it just makes me feel good..enjoy the things that make you feel happy is all I have to say 😊
I found this in 2011when a hipster chick I met on Facebook in my hometown sent me a USB playlist and lipstick kissed letter. Interesting playlist for an Afghanistan deployment.
That's so beautiful. This ep was a tiny beautiful light within the pit of darkness that was my life at the time when it was first released. Ernest and his amazing music has been there through all of it. And now, my life is absolutely incredible. I found the love of my life. And I know that it was all worth it. Life is absolutely beautiful. And I remember that every time I hear this record. ❤
Me too. I've been clean for 15 months from hard drugs. This album is very peaceful and sets the perfect mood esp for background melodies as i work and do things.
I am sober too and still love it - however i will say that that "New Theory" specifically has some sort of epiphany-inducing element in it's nature and while under the influence of a psychedelic, it is powerful. Listened to this album a few times tripping myself and it is hit or miss, for me it either makes me feel immensly happy and blissful, or can induce a mental breakdown and "bad trip".
I listened to this EP/album as well as Washed Out's other music while traveling through the Mojave Desert and Palm Springs...one of the best decisions I've ever made. Now whenever I hear his music it takes me back to the magical sunrises/sunsets and the beautiful mountains.
been listening to this album for years and have always found the cover to be striking and fit the mood of the album perfectly. these tracks bring me to some beach in Spain while the sun sets with a pretty foreign girl and a mimosa
I miss the Summer of 2009. Chillwave was still popular and I wished Middle School never ended. Listening to both Toro Y Moi and Washed Out on Grooveshark while the sun goes down.
Even though it’s only an EP, this album is my favorite of all time. It got me through one of the hardest times in my life by providing a sense of comfort and motivation. Every time I listen, I forget about whatever’s going on in my life and is taken on a journey of self growth. Each time, it always feels the same: dreamy, softly comforting, but uplifting and motivating. I have nostalgia from Portlandia and growing up in Texas of Sunday afternoons strolling downtown after church, as well as memories of sitting near beaches while listening to this EP. It’s the right mix of comfortable nostalgia and an inspired futuristic vibe. I could go on forever describing what Life of Leisure means to me and what I feel every time I listen to it, but saying all these things simply couldn’t do it Justice. Washed Out is simply amazing, and crafted a beautiful masterpiece and the best seventeen minutes of my life.
Hearing this 8 years later makes me so nostalgic. Back in 2010 I'd come home from school, climb right up to the roof and smoke fat doobies to this album. I was one of the few who listened to Washed Out at the time.
Same, i was early 20s. He opened for Beach House before this album ever came out. He was a librarian from Georgia so he would come down to Tallahassee FL pretty often.
Hold Out has such a nice pacing you can really listen to it time and time again and it doesnt burn out then you come back to it weeks later and rediscover it all over again
Alicia Rios A dance that is nearly as old as civilized man. And it is racially ignorant. Peoples of every color have been doing this for as long as history has been recorded.
Growing up my dad would listen to this kinda music and this hit me with a full on nostaglia punch. When i heard this it sounded just like Happy Children by P.Lion, referring to the first song that plays. . Well played Washed Out. This is the song, you be the judge! Happy Children - P. Lion
✨ Damn, has it really been almost 10 years of this song? 2022 anyone? time fucking flies. you better be doing what you truly love and enjoy doing in this lifetime ❤️ we're all on this journey of self discovery together.
I don't. I don't care if people do, but it pusses me off so much when I come to a video like this and see "sooooo stoned" or can't wait to getttt high" like they can't enjoy the music how it is
SO plan on doing a hoop flow video to this song. LOVE IT!!! Need more music like this on the radio for sure. REAL music with clean innocent lyrics. Reminds me of growing up in the 80's.
This has got to be one of my top favorite albums by Washed Out. I will say from a personal experience, that Washed Out is one of the best people to listen to while you're trippin on lucy.
I really like that he plays this live as band rather than Dj'ing it on laptops etc. Not that its bad that other artists do. Just an interesting twist on the sound when its live.
The romantic, inspired, by you; I was a virgin till I listened to you. The washed out ; I went over the cliff , became a mermaid. You were there , the washed up , my fellow romantics; I was a virgin till I heard you. Love Hippy Lesb.
No I haven't, if that's what this is I really like it! I'm messing around with the intro synth, it's been on repeat in my head. You've got some funky tunes man!
Yeah, all of the stuff of Washed Out is like this. Check out his "High Times EP." It's all chillwave. He's the only artist that still makes chillwave, although he hasn't released anything new in a couple years. But the stuff that he's made so far is just beautiful.
This brings peace to my heart and the people that are being racist to others need to stop i know its not there fault its mental illness and they are forgiven I'm a Christian and i bring peace to everyone i dont bring harm to nobody i do get angry because of a brain condition i have but i dont hit nobody i bring peace to every body this Christmas and all the time i love yall.
Ricardo Ellison rather I want to see how the Portlandia soundtrack sounds, em... in my condition...( Portland, my hometown, & recently got "decriminalized")

should have done the same when i visted the Mojave desert
Tyler U skating Me too!
Great combo
Now time for the sonoran desert! Wanna go!
this EP was such a huge part of my teenage years. got me through some tough times. I'll probably be listening to it for the rest of my life.
same here!! This album is a timeless classic
This album got me through my 40's ... Gem.
This music makes me happy. I can't explain it but it reminds me of road tripping in the summer.
Rick Popovich Agreed. Like living in a perfect world, a car commercial. haha.
DontQuitYourDayDreams watch thier video "all I know"

The album cover is actually Ernest's wife Olivia.
*Blair
Jack Gibbins I just looked up it up in depth and you were right. Her name's Blair.
lool
Been Washed Out fangirling for too long now. If you still like Washed Out I've got something cool to share with you
Jack Gibbins lol What's that?? 🎊👀🎊

This is the perfect soundtrack for boating on a summer day
this is such a sweet album to listen to when you're sober.

Sometimes I get sober just to listen to this.
@@kurtlennon6597 hahaha
THIS ALBUM DEAD ASS CHANGED MY LIFE .....
This been on repeat for 4 years THEY DONT UNDERSTAND
Your choice was right.
Longer than that 😅😂
That album cover perfectly sums up what this album is all about.
This album just screams nostalgia to me it's so good
just ate abunch of spaghetti very slowly and thought about life through the whole coarse of this album
RIght off the bat when I saw the album cover, I knew this music would be amazing. Feel It All Around will always be my most favorite track off this.
It’s summer again
Time for my yearly tradition of listening to this album on the first day of summer
My new favorite band!
Love this band

Damn...
Time flies doesn't it??
Fèlix Yeah time flies too fast
Same
2010 hits different
Same, i was early 20s. He opened for Beach House before this album ever came out. He was a librarian from Georgia so he would come down to Tallahassee FL pretty often.
i love sitting down and listening to paracosm, then this and then within and without the whole way through. Time flies
the dream of the 90s is alive in portland
the dream of the 1890s

Hold Out has such a nice pacing

Discovered Washed Out after listening to "Forgive" by Roosevelt and Washed Out.Man it hit me like a freight train with no brakes !

I have listened to a lot of indie and electronic albums. Can honestly say this from start to finish is very well done. Congrats
I forgot this album existed. Last time I heard this was back in 14'. The nostalgia is real
Washed Out makes me do this one dance, I open my arms and spin in circles and stomp my feet. (sober)
Alicia Rios hi it's called the Grateful Dead white person dance. thank you
Haha thank you Nick
Nick Foti I've been to 3 dead shows and only seen them perform once. But was entertained by the whirling dirvishes quite often in the parking lot.
***** whoa it's an actual dance?!
Alicia Rios A dance that is nearly as old as civilized man. And it is racially ignorant. Peoples of every color have been doing this for as long as history has been recorded.
ayye Feel It All Around is the theme song for Portlandia x
some people listen to 'washed out' while doing homework, others while doing drugs
Mattis Uhlmann-Useriu I listen to Washed Out while doing homework, on drugs.
wkndr4life yes!!!
Alicia Rios ;)
Mattis Uhlmann-Useriu homework is brainwashing and drugs free your mind
u sound like a fellow recreationalist
Growing up my dad would listen to this kinda music and this hit me with a full on nostaglia punch. When i heard this it sounded just like Happy Children by P.Lion, referring to the first song that plays.
. Well played Washed Out.
This is the song, you be the judge! Happy Children - P. Lion
✨ Damn, has it really been almost 10 years of this song?
2022 anyone?
time fucking flies. you better be doing what you truly love and enjoy doing in this lifetime ❤️ we're all on this journey of self discovery together.
The nostalgia hurts so bad
2023- My 1st time hearing the whole album!!🔥🔥🔥
I miss my mother so much. The first track is speaking mad volumes to me right now.
nice! just like a dream i never wanna wake up from......
I love these songs I remember listening to feel it all around on Pandora.
Lol, am I the only one that listens to this music and doesn't do any drugs? I feel like a lot of people do.
Nark
I don't. I don't care if people do, but it pusses me off so much when I come to a video like this and see "sooooo stoned" or can't wait to getttt high" like they can't enjoy the music how it is
Jesse pinkman you want to buy some meth?
no bitch i only use my product.
jonvanvliet Word around youtube is that Jesse is a snitch
went to a washed out concert back in september the entire room smelled of weed and everyone was on one and happy it was nice
AHH the song to the intro of Portlandia!! Finally!!! Feel it all around B)
we can all associate a very special feeling with this.
Listening in 2023, thank you for the upload.
This music allows me to turn down the neurotic dial in my brain.
whoah, man. that's like whoah
riding the chill wave ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I feel that
never gets old
Summer of 2010
Miss this
SO plan on doing a hoop flow video to this song. LOVE IT!!! Need more music like this on the radio for sure. REAL music with clean innocent lyrics. Reminds me of growing up in the 80's.
I know music can't speak or talk in words, but if you listen close enough, you can hear and understand its meaning, just beautiful ♥
This has got to be one of my top favorite albums by Washed Out. I will say from a personal experience, that Washed Out is one of the best people to listen to while you're trippin on lucy.
I'd rather be on Shrooms doe
💀💀💀
+Jasmine Escoba Lol fuck yea, its like the staple to the ground when you're 4 hours in with 5 hits lol

Nope. Wrong.

Jordan Gidley #HomeTown
I really like that he plays this live as band rather than Dj'ing it on laptops etc.
Not that its bad that other artists do. Just an interesting twist on the sound when its live.
Dude thank you so much! These videos complete me
nostalgia for a nonexistent time period
I smoked a banana peel, then some oregano, a dirty diaper, and then part of a rubber tire. Right on man.
lmaoo
Nice.
Next time just stick with sharpies.
420 blaze it
Steven Diaz I prefer white out myself
BLAZE DAT CRACK ALL DAY
this been a huge vibes for years
doctor: you have 17 minutes and 37 seconds to live
me:
Nice & quite innocent. You can be high, sober or whatever to enjoy this. Good memories especially related to Feel It All Around.
Some cool music to listen to if your driving into the city at night. Going to see a show or something.
I love this album cover.
This album is magickal
100% Not sober listening to this lmfaoo 💕☺️

+Luc Highwalker thanks for the warning. Scrolling back up now.
Damnit. I already read them all tho. That's how I got down here.
but do you like the music
this comment is just one big conundrum...
Fuck yeah
You don’t get this kind of chill wave anymore.
No I haven't, if that's what this is I really like it! I'm messing around with the intro synth, it's been on repeat in my head. You've got some funky tunes man!
Yeah, all of the stuff of Washed Out is like this.
Check out his "High Times EP."
It's all chillwave.
He's the only artist that still makes chillwave, although he hasn't released anything new in a couple years.
But the stuff that he's made so far is just beautiful.
Only now in 2016 do I come around to the vapor-wave thing, but I was a fan of this album when it came out.. Love It.
This is Chillwave tbh
This brings peace to my heart and the people that are being racist to others need to stop i know its not there fault its mental illness and they are forgiven I'm a Christian and i bring peace to everyone i dont bring harm to nobody i do get angry because of a brain condition i have but i dont hit nobody i bring peace to every body this Christmas and all the time i love yall.

If you like Tame Impala check this album out: www.aurablaze.bandcamp.com/album/aura-blaze
