Caribou – Swim

anyone happen to kno if there were both yellow/red marble AND black variants of the 10th anniversary pressing?

Mine came without side A/B so back to the shop it went. I thought it was a little light for a 2x12 but didnt find out til i got it home :p

Excellent pressing. Clear, punchy and loud without being too bassy. Dead silent vinyl. Only complaint is from my cat who listens with me, 45rpm means I'm up down too often for him to settle. Well worth the money if you're going to purchase this album. Odessa is a cracking opener.

Perfect sounding copy - quite good volume too. Cd like booklet inside and anti static inner sleeves are a plus ✨

am i only person that found CD inlay paper inside Gatefold sleeve ? :)

my record plays beautifully at 45 rpm. No crackling or background noise. Superb pressing!

I knew Caribou was good, and I didn't own anything by him, and I had had this album on my wantlist for a while, but I couldn't why or whether I still wanted it.

But, because I found it on offer cheaply while picking up a FSOL album from a Discogs seller, I added it to my cart to save on postage.

It is very mellow. Kind of reminds me of Four Tet in a lot of ways. Mellow, relaxing ambient/deep electronica with tribal influences.

It won a lot of awards on release, and I can see why. It is a very nice wind-down album, similar to a lot of records I have from the 'Late Night Tales' mix series. Definitely fits well into my collection.

People complaining about the speed, just slow it down... actually I found that certain sides play very nicely on 33rpm too, especially D side.
My copy sounds great btw

Sounds amazing and better than the american 45. Surprising I know. Both copies I ordered came damaged (records are perfect) a little bummed about that especially since they were the last two in stock and haven’t seen any others online that aren’t resale. Still happy to have it

Excellent pressing. I've had mine since it came out; dead silent, still. The imaging and stereo spread is wide and open as can be. Solid punch, creamy top end; much more enjoyable than the digi version I have. I cued up side C and got worried as everything was so silent, then the track started. :) My copy most certainly is at 45 rpm and does not sound fast at all; it's identical to the rpms on my digi copy.
