Dan Snaith aka Caribou’s main man has had a fine line in dance productions under the name daphni for the last couple of years including slots at Forbidden Fruit and DJing back to back with Four Tet.
He’s back with a new 12″ release on his Jiaolong label. Both tracks feature the violin work of Owen Pallett who provides the grimey string line on the minimal tech-house track ‘Julia’ and the stabs on the bass-heavy percussive dissonant techno-leaning B-side ‘Tiberius’. The tunes go deep.
