I kind of turn off the critical part of my brain that thinks, 'Is this something that's going to be a Caribou track? Is this going to be something that goes on an album?'\n\n\"I'm just having fun, every day, that’s the process is to just enjoy that. So that was very much the spirit in which I put this together. I was browsing YouTube when I first came across the sample that's the kind of core of this track, which is the track by Gloria Barnes also called 'Home.'\n\n\"It's kind of a lost, soul gem. I spend a lot of time in my life digging for records in dusty warehouses and flea markets and things. Now, just as often, I'm looking for music on YouTube, and that’s how I came across this track. I kind of miss that sense of stumbling across something when you're there in a kind of back room of a record store or wherever you might find something.\n\n\"But to be honest with you, the thing that I'm really interested in is the musical ideas, and that's always just as thrilling no matter where you find it.\" https://tinyurl.com/c7b5tcdh", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
