White Poppy - Paradise Regained (2024) [Hi-Res]

Crystal Dorval’s dream-pop journey as White Poppy spans over a decade, the last half of which has centered on a song-writing cycle called ‘Paradise Gardens,’ documented across a trilogy of LPs: Paradise Gardens (2020), Sound Of Blue (2023), and Ataraxia (2024). Its muse is a fusion of bedroom shoegaze and bleached bossa nova, with shades of new age, private press pop, and outsider tropicalia.

Paradise Regained collects 11 outtakes, B-sides, and alternate mixes from the ‘Paradise Gardens’ vaults to showcase the flux and exploration of Dorval’s process. Melodies simmer and resurface in different windswept moods, changing with the seasons. Each song lives a small lifetime between conception and final arrangement, billowing and shapeshifting like threads of dreams still unwoven.
