Monthly Mix: January 2015

Panda Bear Meets The Grim Reaper

     Although the sun hasn't seen much action lately, the year is off to a hot start thanks to a healthy portion of fresh tunes.
     Baltimore's Noah Lennox, better known as Panda Bear is back making experimental electronic music, and his latest record Panda Bear Meets The Grim Reaper is his most complete effort to date. Lennox states he's "psyched to be an old guy", and it shows throughout the album. He also shows off a more youthful vibe as can be heard on the track "Boys Latin."  A large tour will support the album with stops in Europe and coming back home with a big slot at Coachella.
     The January playlist is a good way to stay warm while shoveling the snow, skiing down a black diamond, or drinking an Irish coffee in the lodge.
