Background
After 2013's Farther Reaches gained traction through the title track's placement on popular YouTube channel Majestic Casual[2] and working with cassette-based DIY label Birdtapes (who re-released his 2013 EP Holy Cross), Powell began work on what would become Virgo Indigo entirely in his St. John's apartment. Featuring heavily ambient, dream-pop atmospheres, the album is often tagged under the dream pop, shoegaze tag. The album produced one single, It Was Never Enough[3] and premiered on The FADER[4] and No Fear of Pop.[5]
