With his eagerly-awaited new album now just a month away, Gold Panda has now dropped the next cut to be lifted from his forthcoming full-length.
The new single 'The Dream' comes accompanied by a stunning new video, directed by Rob Brandon, and follows on from the previously shared tracks 'I've Felt Better (Than I Do Now)' and 'The Corner' in previewing his new LP 'The Work', which is out on the 11th November via City Slang.
Speaking about the new offering, he said, "'The Dream' was actually multiple songs to begin with, the harpy bits were separate but I dropped those samples into this song and it just went together really nicely, the drums were made in max/msp and then sampled into an MPC. Organic sounding vinyl samples and digital drums and textures are my favourite combination.
"I never knew how this song would end up, a bit like a dream, a new element is introduced, seemingly out of place until the other parts come back in again.... then suddenly it was finished! Now I can hear it finally as a whole piece, it existed as multiple songs for so long and it makes no sense and total sense."
While director Rob Brandon added about the visuals, "I was trying out a bunch of VR apps on my iPhone 6 and stumbled on some fun stuff. It’s a combination of the things I’ve been exploring for the last year."
