The Daily Choice: Robin Pecknold + Ed Droste - I’m Losing Myself

Call it backlash from the massive surge of Fleet Foxes love, but I’ve started to think that Robin Pecknold’s solo production is just a smite more interesting. Ring the bells, Pecknoldians, as the prolific front-man released a trio of new tracks just last week. About the songs:
“These aren’t Fleet Foxes songs, but I didn’t know where else to disseminate it. Pretty mellow jams…One is a duet with my friend Ed Droste from the amazing band Grizzly Bear, one is just a new solo jam, and one is a cover.”
The cut with Ed Droste is slow and sad and feels like a natural combination of the more indie feel of Grizzly Bear and Pecknold’s yen for chamber folk. Gorgeous music.
I’m away from a computer with the sweet technological advancements of an FTP, so please head over to Gorilla vs. Bear to grab this track.
