Tomboy, listened to it once. I have to say, I haven't written about Panda Bear's Person Pitch, which I should really because that's a great album. But I listened to this today and was just blown away by the amount of production into the sound. Another great piece by the one and only Panda himself.
From the first track 'You can count on me', I was sort of prepared, ready or however you want to describe it. It was introducing this new path that Panda Bear was inspired to take for this album and I absolutely love it. It also feels as though he took a new approach to his song writing aswell. Instead of shifting from one sample to the other like he did in Person Pitch, he constructs his verses, his melodies, quite orderly which is a good change from his slightly messy 'person pitch' but I still like the messyness of 'person pitch' anyway.
My favorite track on the album so far is 'Last Night At the Jetty'. Great beat. Great melodies, harmonies, samples. It's epic. Beautiful and nostalgic for me. It sparks memories about old experiences I had where I truly enjoyed parts of my life. The structure of this song is quite amazing, it turns at points where you wouldn't normally find in a pop song or other music. Very unconventional but still top notch.
PB = My inspiration
