Reptaliens is a band that takes a fairly mellow approach to their psychedelic-inspired, synth driven dream pop that is perhaps best appreciated by people who prefer their music with subtle humor and a take-it-easy attitude. The core of the band is Bambi and Cole Browning, two established songwriters in the Portland scene before they got married and started working together. As they grew a steady band around them, their music evolved from their woozy bedroom pop into woozy hybrid of synth pop and dream pop, until the pandemic happened and they went back to working as a duo, stripping down the synths and creating woozy, dreamy pop. They have continued to turn out organic and relaxed melodies along the way. Bambi is the vocalist with a soft, velvety voice that works very well with Cole's swirly guitars and the spongy sound the duo has developed.
