This is the highly anticipated solo debut from Deakin, aka Josh Dibb of Animal Collective. While Panda Bear, Avey Tare, and Geologist have long released solo works, Deakin kept a low - key profile until 2016 when he quietly released his first solo recordings on cassette. The music was conceived between 2010 and 2016, with help from well - known collaborators like Tim Dewit (formerly of Gang Gang Dance), producer Nicolas Vernhes, and Pete Kember (Sonic Boom, Spacemen 3, Spectrum). If you love the freaky folk sounds of Feels and Strawberry Jam more than their later electronics - heavy records, this album is a must - have. Dibb says Sleep Cycle is about overcoming fear and doubt. This newly remastered vinyl edition comes in a full - color gatefold sleeve with a digital download code. Key features include: long - awaited solo debut, black vinyl pressing, originally on cassette in 2016, newly remastered, gatefold jacket, digital download, and it's from the Domino label in 2019.
