DAPHNI – Jiaolong (Repress) – 2LP – Gatefold Vinyl

Description

2LP – Black Vinyl Repress housed in a Gatefold Sleeve.

While Caribou has been touring the globe throughout 2012 in support of Radiohead, Dan Snaith has fallen deeper into his love affair with the dancefloor to bring us a full-length release as Daphni. The first Daphni album of shape-shifting works is titled Jiaolong (pronounced JOW-long) and released on Dans own imprint (also called Jiaolong).

Inspired to work in a completely different waysetting aside the meticulous compositional rigors and musical layers that underpin Caribou songsDan Snaith-as-Daphni reaches out for a more feminine, fluid energy and seeks instant gratification.

Daphni tracks are rough and spontaneous, he explains. Theyre about working fast and intuitively, capturing the manic energy needed to start a track one afternoon, have it finished, and be playing it in a club that night.
