You’ve hereby been warned that anytime this year we see the words “Panda Bear” and “Daft Punk” in the same sentence, it’s probably going to be something I hop on the site to write about. Perhaps my favorite artists to emerge from my “post-jam” phase of musical discovery has been the Animal Collective crew, including the magnificent solo efforts by Panda Bear, so when I saw that he’d be joining the ranks of fantastic collaborators on the newest Daft Punk album I was pretty smitten about the whole affair. Even Panda Bear’s less-than-stellar outputs have always been interesting to me musically, and I can’t wait to see what flavors he adds to the Daft Punk sound. Here him talk about the process a bit in the latest video by the Creators Project which keeps releasing new videos leading up to the album release.
“It’s wanting to remember something that was really good that’s old that’s kinda been forgotten…”
Think you’ve heard everything by Panda Bear? Check out this video by Atiba Jefferson where Panda Bear contributed a track that’s never been released…
