#16 - Caribou - Our Love (Merge Records / City Slang) It was shortly after receiving his doctorate in Mathematics from Imperial College London in 2005 (which added another cool layer to his already colorful aura), that DJ Dan Snaith (aka Caribou) started to slowly move from his enthusiastic proposal of recycling early nineties indie rock (mostly shoegaze) to more psychedelic landscapes with 2005’s The Milk of Human Kindness and 2007’s Polaris Prize Winner Andorra. Therefore it would hardly came as a surprise to realize that Dan Snaith would keep pushing his Caribou moniker to new sonic landscapes and, in did, this year’s Our Love can easily be seen as the subtle culmination of the recent focus shifting from the bedsit to the nightclub initiated with 2010’s dancefloor-orientated Swim: a fascinating and slow-burning collection that mixes house, jazz and ambient music in a way that makes it one of the most playable and rewarding electronic albums of 2014. blog.musikki/?p=2336
