"Walkabout" isn't the best track on Atlas Sound's second proper full-length Logos, but it is the song that features a member of Animal Collective, which is likely why it got out there first. Truth is, it's kind of album's curve ball moment. Even though its more skeletal than some of Logos (see, for instance, the show-stopping "Quick Canal"), the spaciously intimate "Attic Lights" nails the collection's vibe better and feels more representative of its overall aesthetic. Cox offered some background on the song in his initial Logos statement:Sasha Vine [of Sian Alice Group] provided a double-tracked improvised violin part to "Attic Lights" which was recorded backstage at a Deerhunter/Sian Alice Group show in Brighton. It might be my favorite moment of the album. I played it for some younger friends of mine. They cringed. They wanted more songs like "Walkabout." Something with a big beat. I told them when they get older they will appreciate things like harmonicas and violins...And Fleetwood Mac covers.

His Halloween treats already in the bag, Bradford Cox has shifted his attention to remixing recent tourmates Stereolab's Chemical Chords track "Neon Beanbag." This is his so-called "Southern Baptist" remix. The opening preacher man sample sounds familiar. As far as the song itself, Cox sets chillier tones against claps and an overall phased, les...
I'm not a close follower of the Deerhunter blog, but the piece Bradford Cox wrote about Stereolab's "Blue Milk" about a year ago has stayed with me, because I felt like he and I hear the same things in that amazing song (he gets a Pitchfork dig in there, too, but whatev). Atlas Sound, Cox's side project, recently spent a few weeks opening for St...
