Animal Collective Get Rights To First Legal Grateful Dead Sample Ever
Animal Collective |
We've long known that Animal Collective's roots run deep into the jam world, and now we have serious proof! JamBase just got word of a Tweet from the band's management which said: "Animal Collective confirmed to get first officially licensed Grateful Dead sample! Phil Lesh loved the track please pass this to the guys." Sick! So not only is AC sampling the Dead but Phil loves it!
The track in question is "What Would I Want Sky" which includes a sample of The Grateful Dead's "Unbroken Chain." No word yet on if the song will be released, but you can check it out right now at http://iguessimfloating.net (that's the best version we've found on the ol' interweb). Dig Phil's voice floating around amongst the angels and digital weirdness... so cool!
Animal Collective is on tour now in Europe, dates available here. And for more on AC, check our recent exclusive feature/interview here.
