Caribou ‘Our Love’ Due 10/7 Via Merge

Caribou releases their Our Love on October 7 on Merge. Dan Snaith has revealed an extended DJ-friendly mix of “Can’t Do Without You,” the song that accompanied Caribou’s triumphant return to the fore last month. The extended version is available now from all digital services and as a limited-edition 12-inch via Snaith’s own label JIAOLONG.


 


Having racked up over a million plays on Soundcloud alone in little over a month, the original track also accompanied news that Caribou will be returning to the US in November.


 


What the press is saying about “Can’t Do Without You”:


“It sounds as if Snaith is giddily celebrating the life-affirming love invoked by his next LP’s title, and you can’t really care much about trends and genre rules when you’re feeling that high.”- Pitchfork, Best New Track

“Like a technicolor zephyr come to cool the one-big-dance-floor that is our warming globe, the man born Dan Snaith returns to his Caribou moniker and lets loose a perfect tune.” – Spin


 


“Fantastic. . . warped, warm, wildly idiosyncratic electronica.” – The Guardian


 


Our Love is due out on October 7 and features collaborations with Jessy Lanza and Owen Pallett. It was mixed by David Wrench and features artwork by Jason Evans and Matthew Cooper. Pre-order the album on LP or CD in the Merge store and digitally at iTunes.
