Music Daphni – Jiaolong (2xLP + MP3 code)^Women Music | Music

Daphni is Dan Snaith of Caribou’s afterhours club DJ alter ego.

Born out of his DJ gigs post shows supporting Radiohead, Daphni’s debut, Jiaolong, is a portal to Snaith’s minimalist/ track-y/disco diva side. Afro rhythms, dark percussive loops, and repetitive vocals thread together these moody cuts.

From the soul-flecked, piano house of “Yes I Know” to the acidic meltdown of “Ahora,” Jiaolong is varied in its simplicity, playing like a DJ set rather than an artist album.

Limited deluxe double vinyl pressing in gatefold sleeve.
