Caribou’s Dan Snaith has shared a new song as Daphni. The single, “Sad Piano House” is billed as a continuation of Cherry’s “Cloudy.” Watch the new track’s video below.
“I DJ’ed a lot last year in the lead up to the Caribou album and inevitably ended up making a bunch of new music to play out in those sets,” Snaith said in a press statement. “I’d made this one but knew that I wasn’t sure about it or when it would ever get a release so I sent it over to Ben UFO and he started playing it and people started asking me about it. now I’ve finally got a chance to finish it off and release it.”
He continued: “I’d given it the temporary title ‘Sad Piano House’ when I sent it because it’s piano house… but, you know, not that kind of piano house… I didn’t really intend for that to be the final track title but once it appeared in a couple of tracklists for radio shows and people started asking about it, the title stuck.”
Snaith shared his latest album as Caribou, Honey, in 2024. Last month, he teamed up with Sofia Kourtesis for “Unidos,” a Daphni collaboration that will appear on the Peruvian producer’s forthcoming Volver EP.
