More often than not electronic music is passed off as club music with very little consideration of anything else it may have to offer. Caribou has successfully challenged this notion with ‘Can’t Do Without You’, the opening track for latest album Our Love. The track may be relatively simple, highly repetitive, and sure it sticks to some of your typical ‘club’ sounds, but nevertheless each element of ‘Can’t Do Without You’ increasingly functions as a surge of intense emotion. It’s easy to listen to, it’s relateable, plus it’s a fun one to boogie to, so what’s not to love?
