Gold Panda’s latest album, “The Work,” showcases his highly emotional electronica that has made him a revered name in the industry. As Derwin Dicker makes his comeback after a six-year hiatus from Gold Panda, he presents an album that sifts through his musical past while forging a new path forward in his artistry. With billowing neon-lit synths and soulful samples, “The Corner” reaches an emotionally embracing peak as it swells in its final moments, pairing some of his warmest loops with his most ecstatic rhythms.
As he explores an organic sound that is full of instrumental samples mixed into an intricate beat fresco, Gold Panda makes every track a sensory feast. From the blushing piano chords and blissful harps braided into the fabric of “The Dream” to the deep reverberations of tabla that give a cinematic energy to the more turbulent and solitary “The Want,” “The Work” is a clear demonstration of Gold Panda at his most refined. Other artists like Simian Mobile Disco have collaborated with Dicker in the past, but with this album, Gold Panda proves that he still remains at the forefront of emotional electronica.
