Interview: Little Dragon
Early last year Swedish trip hop outfit Little Dragon released their fourth album Nabuma Rubberband, a record steeped in the influences of Janet Jackson slow jams. The four-piece set to work on the album in early 2013 after a period of touring, deciding to peel back their hectic schedule and take the time to make a more considered set of songs. The result is a shimmering collection of ambient offerings that features string players from the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra as well as a guest appearance from Dave from De La Soul, and gained a nomination for Best Dance/Electronic Album at the Grammys. With the group set to appear at Laneway Festival next week, UnderTheRadar sat down to chat with bandmember Erik Bodin about the album and the series of zombie-themed videos it spawned...
