The ever-busy Toro y Moi believes firmly in keeping the releases coming. "The music industry is moving so fast, it's a business move to keep putting things things out, to keep your name out there," ol' Chazwick Bundick told me in an interview last year.
True to such spirit, Bundick has a new release on the cards, in follow up to a 2011 that gave the world Underneath the Pine and the Freaking Out EP.
It's called June 2009, and, as its title suggests, it's a collection of home-recordings from June of 2009, catching Bundick working at his still-fledgling project. The set will be released by Carpark on April 24, both as single CD and as 5x7" box-set.
You can source a new/old track, "Pontoon," from the Toro y Moi blog, which shows the more muggy, folkie sound Bundick was working through long before he went disco.
Toro y Moi is also currently on tour through Asia through February, P.S....
