The worlds of indie and club music are hardly irreconcilable, either in difference or distance, but it can often be hard to spot crossover success that extends beyond one-off hits or remix packages.
Step forward Dan Snaith, aka Caribou. The Canadian musician is a respected DJ, often showcasing his crate-digging talents alongside musical contemporaries Floating Points and Four Tet at (the now sadly departed) Plastic People in London, where Snaith is based.
Away from the dancefloors, Snaith is equally revered by indie fans. Performing with a full band, a Caribou live show is equal parts intricate and hypnotic. The audience at Hostess Club Weekender on Saturday was treated to a set packed full with crowd-pleasing favorites, drawing heavily from 2010's "Swim" and last year's "Our Love."
