Little Dragon - "Kalpp Klapp" from Nabuma Rubberband
Little Dragon drops "Klapp Klapp" the first single off their forthcoming album Nabuma Rubberband. After teasing us with a title, tour dates and even a behind the scenes glimpse of this very track in a home studio session via Yours Truly, we finally have some really music. Like, an mp3! Now that it's here I'm not sure how I made it this far without fresh dragon meat on my plate. The Swedish new wavey art&B outfit have clearly not missed a step, as "Klapp Klapp" delivers all the percussive uptempo funk, moody synths and Yukimi soul you could hope for. But lest you felt satisfied for a minute, LD also tease us with tracklisting for Nabuma Rubberband and some more tour dates (scroll down) to set off the next round of feverish anticipation. Pre-order Nabuma Rubberband via iTunes here...and fifty dragonbucks to the first person who can exlpain who/what Nabuma is and why they need a rubberband. Also how did this little girl in the picture learn to levitate like that?
