Customer Review

What was that not a sound, then in the spring four years ago, which toasty warm, like a movie or a steadily rising tide, put on a and remained. Throughout the summer, at least. Sun, Bowls, Odessa: delicate, sensitive dance music with sophisticated manufacturing claim, free from baser instincts. Hedonists and escapist happily reunited on the dance floor, under the headphones, to the recreational area. The Album of the Year swim, it was a formative cornerstone style can produce what rangy-complex electronic music with the structural funds of the pop songs. Certainly, one or the other DJ and beat-smith showed us this before, but not in our usual verse-chorus-cosmos.

But the road to this merging of dance music styles was relatively straightforward for Daniel Snaith from Toronto, holds a doctorate in mathematics and longtime London. From Dream-Pop, from pure band music, the hybrid Folktronica the entrances, ports, outputs and final products were successively always digital, from his first alter ego Manitoba up to the first two albums Caribou. It therefore is not surprising that pumping in the period between the swim and now available Our Love Snaith as a DJ, under the name Daphni, Afro-beat-heavy experimental House Couleur finest in the active speaker of Berghain this world.

Snaith has become the pure electro-act, who knew him before swim must be used to it. There is basically no more band necessary for the performance of the Caribou sounds, even though it will probably not let this take. Between Caribou and Daphni there are only theme no longer structural differences. The only real drawback of this worthy successor is: Swim was organic, was a unit, a head-cinema feeling travel as an album.

In comparison, Our Love is a collection with a clear, skipbaren hanger in the middle part to the weak, weak vocal Guest post by the really great compatriot Jessy Lanza. But of course, Snaith has the magic emotional beat production not forgotten. What are Cant Do Without You, All I Ever Need and Our Love for delicate flowers unobtrusive Beatrhytmisierungen and wise of sampled Melodieaufschichtungen. In the best moments I always see Caribou-bright scenes, where dust and air particles are suddenly visible, reality gets finer, more concrete color.

Despite some dahinplätschernder electronica moments Our Love has become great, if not groundbreaking. Not least thanks to sublime final spurt with Mars and Your Love Will Set You Free. Whether Snaith different alter egos in the future needs remains to be seen. A beautiful finale of the experiment would Caribou Our Love all.
