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.
