Beach House is the debut studio album by American dream pop duo Beach House. It was released on October 3, 2006, by Carpark Records in North America, Bella Union in Europe, and Mistletone Records in Australia. After meeting each other in 2004 and later splitting from another band the following year, Daggerhearts, members Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally decided to write a set of songs together, as they wanted to form a band. They would record their debut album on a 4-track recording tape in 2005 over a two-day period in Scally's basement. Beach House contains nine tracks, featuring a dream pop and indie pop sound, with influences of lo-fi and shoegaze. The instrumentation throughout consists of slide guitars, organs, tambourines and keyboards, which are performed alongside programmed drum rhythms. "Apple Orchard", the album's third track, was featured on music publication Pitchfork's Infinite Mixtape series in August 2006, which helped Beach House and their album gain attention and discussion through music blogs.
