Caribou Announces New Album Honey, Shares Video For New Song: Watch

Dan Snaith will return, on October 4, with Honeyhis first record Caribou from 2020 Suddenly. The album, released by Mergefeatures recent singles “Volume,” “Honey,” and “Broke My Heart,” as well as a new one, “Come Find Me,” which you can listen to below. It comes with a video in which a dancer in a comically large Dan Snaith mask dances around London, to the dismay of passers-by (including Snaith himself).

In a press release, Snaith said of the new song, “I love that kind of chord sequence and that kind of French touch, but it took a long time to find the right vocal hook and breakdown and make it more pop. and in brief. When I play this in a DJ set, when it just drops into the song and then all of a sudden it's a song that pops back into the wave—I know nobody in the crowd has actually heard it before, and yet people always respond to it in a really emotionally charged, euphoric way… That's always the best litmus test that a piece has come together the right way.”

Added for the album:

One thing that hasn't changed for me since the beginning is the maniacal curiosity to see what I can make of sound. Not so much what an audio guy—a “professional” with many collaborators and resources at his disposal—can do, but me in my little basement studio. There's more gear in here than there used to be, but it's basically the same as always: I'm still chasing the thrill when something hits really hard, and I find myself jumping up and down or the hairs on my arms stand up in excitement. How lucky am I that this never went away? That the opportunity to build something new and exciting is still as exciting as ever and as much fun as ever? Starting the day with nothing (and ending most days with nothing good), but occasionally having something stuck in my mind that wasn't there before by the end of the day. It still seems like a kind of alchemy.
