Panda Bear
Lisbon, Portugal |
Billboard
Instinctively nomadic and musically inquisitive, Panda Bear (Noah) has always been searching the land for inspiration and meaning. As a teenager in his hometown of Baltimore , Panda Bear created his first solo record, the long out-of-print, first (and last) album on his and Deakin's (Joshmin) Soccer Star Records. Panda then made his way to University in Boston . Trouble and crazy things happened so he came down to New York at the turn of the millennium to congregate with his recently-convened Animal brethren (Avey Tare, Geologist, and Deakin). Animal Collective was born again.
When not working on Animal Collective material, Panda Bear creates lots of music by himself and with Scotty Mou (DJ Casio - Queens ) in Jane. He also makes jams with the other animal bros and Rusty Santos for fashion shows as Together. Never sticking with any particular sound, Panda's range goes from the quiet humble jams of Young Prayer to the electronic pop of Person Pitch. Panda Bear currently resides in Lisbon , Portugal .

Hi and thanks for the friendship! Read about your music in an article, couldn't imagine how experimental electronic music goes along with the Beachboys ;) Kind of blew us away when we heard it the first time! Great to find you here! Hope to see you in Berlin someday! Best wishes, SP

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know." (Vladimir Nabokov) Thank you for your friendship! Musical greetings from Munich/Germany! Feel free to download my music!

Every single time I am portugal I wish I had a big ghetto blaster to show just what is up in the back streets of Porto and Braga. I listen to you a lot in Europe. Perfect.
