I really like this song, this band, this podcast...
Sylvan Esso has two members, Amelia Meath and Nick Sanborn, who met while they were both working on other projects. Amelia asked Nick to do a remix of a song by the band she was in at the time, and when that remix was done, they both loved how it turned out. They emailed song ideas back and forth for a while, until they found a time to be in the same place. It was at that point that they first started working on the song, "Coffee." In this episode, Nick and Amelia talk about the origins of the sounds and lyrics within the song, from a Little Tikes xylophone to "Hanky Panky" by Tommy James and the Shondells. Song Exploder is a podcast where musicians take apart their songs, and piece by piece, tell the story of how they were made. http://songexploder.net http://itunes.com/songexploder http://twitter.com/songexploder http://facebook.com/songexploder
