My iPod #205: Panda Bear - Comfy in Nautica

A very recent addition to my iPod. Maybe one or a couple weeks ago, I took on the experience of listening to "Person Pitch", the third album by Panda Bear. Panda Bear is a cool guy, who performs with a cool band called Animal Collective. He also made an appearance on Daft Punk's new album. Do check out Animal Collective in your spare time though.

Getting back to the subject, "Comfy in Nautica" starts "Person Pitch" off with a sample of some sort of tribal chant which repeats throughout. While this is all happening, Mr. Bear sings a mantra on how to live your life. He doesn't really sing, he changes the pitch of his voice on a new syllable. Which is further accentuated by a large amount of echo. That echo doesn't go away for the rest of the album. It is still very effective, and a very simple melody that you'll never forget.

The only bad thing I about the track is the really long and out of tone note at the end. But that's about it really.
