Listen: Gold Panda – Brazil

Gold Panda has announced the release of his second album Half of Where You Live, with a taster in the form of new track ‘Brazil’

Inspired by city living and time on the road, Panda’s sonic signatures are ever-present in ‘Brazil’, which showcases a fluid and progressive approach to the soundscapes the Essex-born, Berlin-based producer does so well. He confidently amps up the sublime and softens the jarring treble, with a motion that will resonate with anyone who might have had the dubious pleasure of night-bussing it around Sao Paolo.

The follow up to Lucky Shiner, Panda’s 2010 debut, Half of Where You Live is released on 11 June with ‘Brazil’ is available as a digital download from tomorrow (16 April). Listen to ‘Brazil’ below.
