Toro Y Moi - "Lyin' (Parts 1-4)"
Toro y Moi debuted a brand new track to help you ease on into your weekend. Titled "Lyin' (Parts 1-4)," the song features Chaz Bundick's soothing voice, a vocoder, feedback-y digital noise, assorted soul samples and a drumbeat straight out of Dilla's vocabulary. Proceeding exquisite corpse-like from the order of an 80s r&b melody through to sonic chaos in 4 easy steps, the track encapsulates in miniature Chaz's tendency to never stick with one style. "Lyin'" can be found on an exclusive tour-only split vinyl release with Dog Bite. The two artists will be performing together throughout North America this winter.
Toro y Moi, who recently dropped a nature-filled video for "Say that", is releasing his new album, Anything in Return, on January 22nd via Carpark Records. (Pre-order via iTunes here). Stream the track below and check out tour dates after the jump.
