Caribou, music project of one Mr. Dan Snaith, have had a good year. The album Swim, released early this year, was a critical hit and they’ve toured the globe since, and they’re still going.
To celebrate all this Snaith is releasing a live album entitled Vibration Ensemble, which was recorded at The Flaming Lips-curated ATP New York last September. This was something of a special show because the band was bolstered to a 15-piece by guests including Kieran Hebden (Four Tet), Luke Lalonde (Born Ruffians), Koushik Ghosh (Koushik), a five piece horn section, four drummers and Marshall Allen, the leader of the Sun Ra arkestra.
This should be a very special and different album, and appropriately the release will be only on double vinyl and the album will be available only at Caribou’s shows. Accompanying the album will be a video of the show on DVD.
The tracklist for Vibration Ensemble is below.
A1. Every Time She Turns Round It’s Her Birthday
A2. Hendrix With Ko
B1. Sandy
B2. Skunks
C1. Barnowl
C2. Melody Day
D1. Brahminy Kite
D2. A Final Warning
