Lucky Shiner

Gold Panda

A masterwork of micro-sampled nostalgia. Warm, kinetic beats layered with glockenspiels and acoustic fragments that feel like a half-remembered vacation.

September 7, 2010 · Notown (2)

Find on Amazon

A shimmering, kinetic blend of nostalgia and forward-motion that feels like watching a landscape pass by from a train window.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the harp-like loop in 'Same Dream China' builds into a frantic yet delicate rhythmic peak
The sudden shift into a driving, four-on-the-floor house beat buried under the fuzz of 'Snow & Taxis'
The emotional weight of the vocal chop in 'You' that feels like a name being called from another room
