We have heard this before. Air's "Moon Safari" was the original hipster synthpop take on another era's sound. It was as sweet, comforting and addictive as eating candy corn while laying on the floor of your room in your childhood home. But that was a decade ago when we were rediscovering the 70s, and the 70s are tired man, it's all about the 80s now, and Washed Out exist to fill our need for nostalgia that sounds better than the original ever actually did. "New Theory" makes sure that we look back, not with anger, but with warm fuzzy thoughts, and depending on your age range this will either be the audial equivalent of the aformentioned candy corn, or a summer's night under the stars awkwardly embracing your first true love.
