Caribou Vinyl Records
Canadian electronic producer Dan Snaith began releasing his colorful, sample-heavy tracks under the moniker Manitoba in the early 2000s, but a lawsuit led him to change the project's name to Caribou in 2004. Snaith re-released much of his Manitoba material with the new name, and continued developing his distinctive sound of warm, playful electronics and blurry samples of live instruments. As time went on, Caribou evolved both on studio creations (like 2007's pastoral Andorra, 2010's beats-forward house record Swim, and 2020's sweet, wistful Suddenly) as well as in expanded live configurations.
