Daphni - Jiaolong LP (new record from dan snaith/caribou)

Yeah that one is my second favourite, after Yes I Know.

New album 'Joli Mai' out tomorrow!

Four tracks already up on his bandcamp: https://caribouband.bandcamp.com/album/joli-mai

Nice! Very little Snaith has done that I haven't liked, looking forward to playing this on the way home.

Record is on spotify now. It's fucking great!

Really enjoying this. Sometimes I feel like Dan Snaith is my musical avatar, not exactly my "favorite artist" so much as the one that best marries all of the aspects of my musical taste, sense of groove, aesthetic, etc.

His recent Fabriclive mix is entirely his own stuff and is excellent.

Isn't most of that mix meant to be on the new album?

My guess is that it'll sound a lot better mixed together than as discrete album tracks but this is a bit of a truism with dance albums anyway.

Listened to the album now and it's fine, it's good, but fucking hell *every track* bar one is already on the Fabric mix. Except the mix has a load of other good stuff in there in about the same amount of space and is just a much more exciting and varied and dynamic listen. Whereas an extra three or four minutes of 'Face To Face' or 'Hey Drum' add nothing at all really. It's a string of good-to-great club tracks laid out alongside each other.

Hmm, I wanna hear that then. I think the new one works really nicely as a mix, agree the tracks are sort of static but I enjoy the trance-inducing aspect of that.

Found this by accident on Spotify, can’t believe I missed it, pure disco heaven.

I posted on another thread about not liking this ep.

I have changed my mind.

I just found Joli Mai on Spotify and how the hell did I not know about this for 4 years

new album Cherry in october, really liking the 3 preview tracks on bandcamp so far
