Panda Bear has shared his bass-heavy new song “Playing the Long Game,” a one-off single that follows the Animal Collective member’s 2019 solo LP Buoys.
Like that album, “Playing the Long Game” boasts production by Rusty Santos, who worked with Panda Bear to create Buoys’ “hyper-modern,” sub-bass-reliant sound. “We would listen to Migos, Bad Bunny and Ozuna every morning. Rusty hoped that [this album] would sonically fit alongside what’s happening in trap and reggaeton,” Panda Bear previously told Rolling Stone of Buoys.

Along with his cohorts in Animal Collective, Panda Bear — a.k.a. singer-songwriter Noah Lennox — has spent the past two decades fashioning a psychedelic hybrid that defies all existing genre definitions.

Buoys, which follows 2015 electro-pop jaunt Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper, is a carnival of the senses. Fashioned loosely after old dub records, it features inflated low-end frequencies,...

As music streaming has become widespread, global attention has become fixed on Spanish-language performers, and rightly so: That language fueled eight of the ten most-viewed music videos on YouTube in 2018.
But music with lyrics in Portuguese has also experienced a major boost — the baile funk hit “Bum Bum Tam Tam,” by Mc Fioti, became the first clip from Brazil to reach one billion views in September. And music from some regions of Africa, especially Nigeria, is increasingly popular as well — Davido’s single “Fall” is even enjoying some play on American radio.
