Album of the Month - March 2020

Emily -

Caribou - Suddenly

From shimmer to stutter, saunter to skip and swag to swipe, this is a magnificent tapestry of sound from a sentimental music genius. Dan Snaith's trademark fuzzy warmth with oodles of unexpected gear shifts, texturing and loops.

Who
Dan Snaith, the legendary music maestro behind the Caribou moniker, is back with his first new album in five years.

What
Unpredictable, the tracks' tendency to shift in and out of texture, mood and tempo wonderfully reflect the changes Snaith experienced in his own life. The songs bear an affecting sense of journey, as we are invited deep into the realms of a kaleidoscopic storybook. Glorious.

With
Four Tet, Bibio, Hot Chip, Floating Points, Little Dragon, Burial
