We conclude our Panda Bear series with BUOYS, the lowkey 6th album from Noah Lennox (06:50). We talk about dad trap, autotune, process over result, and how Buoys now sounds like a detour compared to the "reset" Noah intended it to be at the time.

Christian and Justin chat with founding Gang Gang Dance member Brian DeGraw (13:04) about the early 00s experimental scene in New York City that included groups like Animal Collective and Black Dice—an alternate history of Meet Me in the Bathroom.

They discuss moving from DC to NYC in '98, being a Manhattan band in a Brooklyn scene, feeling unattached to solo work, piano playing as meditation, and writing music for film. This episode includes snippets of unreleased solo music from  DeGraw.

Other topics include record-breaking drum circles, cruise ship concerts during a solar eclipse, and how a freak tragedy years ago birthed a well of creativity for Brian and his friends.

Prior to the interview, the boys discuss Shabaka's new single featuring Floating Points and Laraaji, which Animal Collective record would work as a Broadway stage adaptation, what the AC boys are up to at the moment, and  more.

Episode 22: Strawberry Jam Deep Dive

The boys go long on maybe the best AC album of all time: Strawberry Jam, the explosive 7th album from Avey Tare, Panda Bear, Deakin and Geologist. Christian and Justin also discuss 2007 as a crossroads for indie rock, steel drums, samples, some casual Beatles comparisons, salvia, and Green Day?

On Merriweather’s 15th anniversary, we are joined by writer Larry Fitzmaurice (7:07) to discuss AC’s world-beating 8th album, a glitch in the Billboard matrix that dosed normies everywhere and was declared album of the year one month into 2009. What a time folks. Thanks for going on this journey.
