The band can make a hit single, but not a full album. Now that I\u2019ve been through the whole album a few things I\u2019ve realized that Tennis really brought their A game with this one. <i>Ritual in Repeat<\/i> has a nice, updated, retro feeling to it. With \u00a0the help of dreamy chords, a variety of instruments, beats, and tempos, I am sold. This may be one of my favorite albums of the year.<\/p>\n<p>One can not go wrong either by listening to the album in its entirety or just picking and choosing tracks to jam out to. \u201cI\u2019m Callin\u201d (#4) is the most recommend song by the label and I couldn\u2019t agree more. It has a nice 1980\u2019s funky vibe that makes you want to bust out your old sneaks and sweat a little on the dance floor. A nice variation from this track would be \u201cThis Isn\u2019t My Song\u201d (#9). I want to put on the biggest skirt full of tulle and find a cute d8 on Tinder to take to a dance with me so that he can hold me close and dance slowly. I would classify this album as upbeat dream pop. Very fun, very relaxing, very Tennis.<\/p>\n<p>Recommended if you like:\u00a0 Seapony, La Sera, Camera Obscura, Hospitality<\/p>\n<p>Recommeded Tracks: &#8220;I&#8217;m Callin&#8217;,&#8221; &#8220;Night Vision,&#8221; &#8220;Needle and a Knife,&#8221; and &#8220;Wounded Heart&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Reviewed by Haven Harbert on September 2, 2014<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One can not go wrong either by listening to the album in its entirety or just picking and choosing tracks to jam out to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":31673,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3230,181],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31672","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-music-rotation","category-rock-rotation"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/tennis-ritual-in-repeat.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31672","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31672"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31672\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31673"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31672"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31672"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kjhk.org\/web\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
