CARIBOU

Massivly into what these guys are doing right now and pretty much fallen in love with these two tracks in particular. When i first heard Odessa i thought it was another new project from Erlend Øye, but its not, its a project by Daniel Snaith of Ontario, Canada, and the more observant of you will have spotted that they’re playing the Warehouse Project on the Kieran Hebden night… here’s what they say
“Formerly known as Manitoba before a legal dispute forced him to use the moniker Caribou, Daniel Snaith is a highly acclaimed electronic producer and multi-instrumentalist from Ontario, Canada. A tutor at Red Bull’s Music Academy, he has become known for his ability to mix sonic experimentation and improvisation with accessible pop structures and vocals with dazzling results, a talent he has described as being linked to his propensity towards science and mathematics, holding a PhD in pure maths. Releasing several albums on Domino offshoot Leaf and Merge records, such as The Milk Of Human Kindness, Andorra and this year’s universally praised Swim, he performs constantly around the world, his live show famous for its bizarre costumes, playful sonic experimentation and dazzling originality.”
Cant argue with that… front and centre for us!
