Ariel Pink - Pom Pom


Many of the current Ariel Pink releases on the label 4AD borrow a lot from his early releases. The story goes that Animal Collective - the American band found a tape on the floor that Ariel had given them to listen. Months passed and they found this tape on the tour van floor. The put it on and were amazed. Ariel has a very distinct sound, bathed in cassette tape effects and Ariel also has a tendency to use DIY instruments, like beatboxing for vocals, and guitars with no strings. He has a completely unique sound and throws music on its head how he approaches music as a multi-instrumentalist and producer.
