I don’t know if you want call this one danceable or bangerish; but its a f*kin dayum good perfect example of a clean mashup from some of my favorties names. Supposedly some tell it, the former (“Your Love”) served as an influence for the latter (“My Girls”) but who knows with the Animal collective. Anyway listen for the great oscillating lines/voices throughout the song with minimal effects editing, works perfectly.

“DC Recordings is one of those labels for hardcore music nerds. Name-dropped by everybody from Simian Mobile Disco to Pedro Winter, DC makes music that is out there; from spacey techno and shimmering krautrock to wobbly, weirdo disco, their discography boasts releases with titles like Revenge of the Iron Ferret, The Madness of Moths and, rather cheekily, Coney Island Baby and Let It Bleed. Higamos Hogamos is one of DC’s newest signings, and their eponymously titled debut, as you might expect, is also out there. A glam space adventure, Higamos Hogamos pits human pomp against the mystery of the universe, with guitar solos space-strutting through the infinite void. “Major Blitzkrieg” is the album’s lead single”

Originally formed in 2006 under the moniker Dodobird as a one man acoustic act, Meric Long would gig around SF playing folky guitar w/ a combination of loops and ambient keyboards. Having already studied West African Ewe drumming, Meric got turned onto country blues fingerpicking and sought to create a band where the drumming could be a center role and help bring out the syncopated rhythms coming out of the acoustic guitar. Through a chance introduction by a roommate, Meric met Santa Cruz transplant Logan Kroeber, who had also been experimenting with drumming, but in the area of progressive metal.- dodosmusic.net
