New Caribou album nearly complete

By | Published on Friday 16 October 2009

Caribou, aka Dan Snaith, has revealed that he has nearly completed work on the follow-up to his 2007 album ‘Andorra’. He added that it will be a departure from his previous work, taking more inspiration from dance music.

Snaith told Stereogum: “It just happens that some of the tracks that were supposed to be dance-y were the most interesting to me. They had elements that dance music wasn’t supposed to have, or had sounds dance music doesn’t traditionally have in it, or some beat or tempo that wasn’t characteristic of dance music, or whatever. I’ve never been successful at being rigid and saying, ‘OK, this track is going to be in this genre’. I always follow my nose and throw in any elements that appeal to me”.

No title or release date have yet been set for the record.
