Its pretty limited , so best pre from Domino i think . Its really nice tho ….dual concentric groove cut . Put on the needle see what u get . Both sides of the disc . A Magic Matrix Puzzle platter : )

OK this all but confirms it's those mexican style covers of reset tracks

Hey there . Well….not exactly covers . We recorded in Coyoacan in Mexico city with MARIACHI 2000 de Cutberto Perez . We translated the songs into Spanish & sing a version of each of the 2 songs as do they . They played the instruments & we did the percussion . We have two vids too , one by skater Evan Smith and one by yr om bray Lucas Moreira .

Excited to hear! Will def be pre-ordering.

Have you heard Sinister Grift? Is it as good as the previews suggest? Finding it difficult to wait.

I have , yeah , it sounds great . Has a couple of new twists that I liked the most , but I can't really answer questions on that . It'll be worth the wait .

Such a shame the industry has these looooong lead times . Wasn't always like this .There were records recorded , pressed & released in the same WEEK in the '60s ....

Yeah i have a hard time imagining its even good for business/sales... Im guessing its the label giving certain artists the short end of the stick to make room for other releases?

Also...... Im guessing pb solo tour in 2025 with a full band?

I'm not seeing a preorder on Domino. Anyone have a link to share? Maybe it's coming this week?

We had the idea to record with a Mexican mariachi party band going back to ‘Tropic of Cancer’ from Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper, but it was always just a pipe dream & circumstances never came together.

odd order for the tracks in digital

Love how this sounds, so cool

Yoo! These sound so good! The perfect two songs to cover, and the horns omg!
Love those roaring sounds in the back of Peligro.

Ordered a copy, really curious to see how the dual concentric vinyl cut thing works,

also, this picture is fantastic

also, this picture is fantastic

"... the mariachi loved the songs and were bemused by their simplicity and the apparent sleight of hand in their construction."

curious about this point, sleight of hand - is this referring to the arrangement, the lyrics/translation, the melody, something else or all of the above?

This made me think too. because they used samples?

Pete, I think what Benji means is "Did the mariachi band love the original songs' 'sleight of hand' because you and Noah used samples (so deftly!)?"

but I think Noah & I both have a weird sense for the art of how to dance around that simplicity to make almost nothing into something magical .. But I also know , to musicians who have a much wider scope than I do , that it’s a surprise when the great song yr digging creates it’s vibe & dynamics from such a simple root . Like 3 upturned cups & a pea …. Where’s the pea at now ? Still the same 3 cups , still the same pea …but somehow always keeping u guessing & surprised .,

Thanks for going into detail and being candid about it

I think I get what you mean. Love it when a song dances around one note or one change. I guess you can flavour a simple root with much more contrast and create more depth that way, or arrange it different like rearranging your furniture and the whole space feels different.

I like yr analogy a lot . Yeah , keep it simple keep it functional . Re-arrange to taste & requirements

Yeah , of course ! I’ve been recording with Saul Adamczewski & Aidan Clough’s INSECURE MEN. And yeah , slowly cooking something to see what we can get ….. it’s gonna be a while I think but definitely have ideas & plans for the beyond . Noah has his Sinister Grift out next year he recorded w Deakin , so i’m slow cooking .
RESET came from a special moment which has passed now , but gonna seek inspiration in some of our outstanding issues I think ….let’s see

Sweet! What’s been inspiring you lately, Pete?
