We told you about Animal Collective’s collaboration with Keep sneakers. Maybe you even ordered a pair of “Avey Tare Ghost Tobin” kicks. When talking about the AC footwear, we also mentioned a mixtape featuring new music from the crew: “Pre-ordered shoes will come with a bonus cassette of previously unreleased music and will be delivered direct to the customer in the Spring.” It’s getting close, so Abby Portner (aka Dave’s sister aka Drawlings) put together a teaser for the tape that features snippets from the tape as well as [UPDATE: "Fickle Cycle” set to] plenty of trippy visuals. Take a look and check out the mix’s tracklist and cover art.
The songs:
01 Geologist – “Jailhouse”
02 Avey Tare – “Call Home (Buy Grapes)”
03 Deakin – “Country Report”
04 Panda Bear – “The Preakness”
The cover:
The official Animal Collective + Keep shoe release is 3/26.

The song in the teaser is “Fickle Cycle” from the Grass EP, not from this new mixtape.
You’re right. That’s what I get for rushing on a Monday morning.
Damn I’m SO excited for the Pitchfork set. I wonder what they’ll play.
for anyone who cares, panda’s contribution “The Preakness” is the song referred to as “A Day Ago” from some of the older boots from last year… i was bummed to see it left off of Tomboy, but now we get it anyway! Winning.
also, sonic boom says he had nothing to do with the recording – its all panda.
anyway, i’m really excited for this. avey’s song will undoubtedly be good, as well as deakin’s. i wonder what the hell geo will sound like by himself?? vocals? that would be a first, and crazy
Yaaay,
Very excited to see them at Pitchfork as well. I wanna hear “Chores,” mutha fucka.
