Free Caribou Download, Album Out April 20, Remix Contest Included

This week is all about Dan Snaith (aka Caribou). His third album Swim is released tomorrow. His first release since 2007's lush and joyous Andorra, Caribou's latest is a darker, slinkier feel with a stronger pull to the dance floor. Where Andorra was oft compared to an electronic version of a day at the beach, the setting of Swim is more along the lines of winding urban streets making your way to the next loft party. Make your own comparisons by giving the entire album a free listen below. The wonderful first single "Odessa" is also available for download.

In celebration of his new release, Caribou has sponsored the quickly-gaining-popularity remix contest. Offering us the separated high quality raw tracks from the new album's second and most dancable track "Sun". There are no other rules provided, so get to it all of you laptop sound engineers.
