Atlas Sound and Panda Bear Join for “Walkabout”

If there are two premier figures in the ambient/dream-rock/experimental/”sound you can’t quite describe” scene, they are Animal Collective’s Panda Bear (Noah Lennox) and Deerhunter/Atlas Sound frontman Bradford Cox. “Walkabout” is their first collaboration and it’s insanely awesome – a phrase commonly used when referring to these guys’ projects. 

Much like songs from their respective bands, it’s hard to place “Walkabout” into a genre. How about, it sounds like it comes from a world where the sun always shines and we all live in the ocean. I tried.

They shoot for experiencing music, not just listening. Man, this brilliant track has that for sure. Check it out at I Guess I’m Floating.

“Walkabout” is off Atlas Sound’s October 20 record Logos.
