Although the chipmunk soul banger "Ryderz" might have been the one that truly grabbed our attention, Hudson Mohawke's "Very First Breath" has been growing on us since it dropped back in March. Taken from his new album Lantern, out June 16th, the song gets a video today. In a statement to Pitchfork, Mohawke spoke about the song:
"'Very First Breath' was something fresh for me. I’d been touring on the same circuit for a couple of years with Irfane and I had been so busy on TNGHT stuff I was itching to work on more song structured record... The album flows through the passage of the day and in my head, I see this song as the very beginning of the record. The sun just coming up. It was important this was the first track people hear."
