Caribou - Swim has rightfully been adorably-critiqued into the ground over the past month. Here is my turn. This album is bloody Summery. The drums are understated, with percussion adding the most intrusive punches on tracks like Kaili. An ambient/trance-like haziness prevails throughout your... Urr... Swim - a nice one! Like having a dip here!Each track exudes a different euphoric experience. Sun is surprisingly dark, with a flat beat, and earrings of the tones of minimal-house guru, Claude VonStroke. This, the third effort from Dan Snaith, is certainly his most triumphant 'stab at it'. The mixture of sounds sourced and experimental layering on tracks like Found Out, featuring prominent plinky-plonky guitar tweaks help keep the music vivid.
The champion track has to be Odessa. It's ethereal welching complemented by shallow dub and harmonious vocals make it a song for festivals, at dusk, with the intoxication of your choice! End of.
