Gold Panda has released a surprise EP, Kindgom, which was inspired by the recent Brexit vote. According to FACT, the producer wrote in a press release that he was inspired to make the EP after talking to an Afghan neighbor who had an unpleasant experience with a deliveryman. “He ordered a phone off Amazon so he could call home, but the delivery driver signed for it and kept it,” Gold Panda wrote. “I thought this was a pretty shitty welcome. I made a couple of less happy songs that are very very loosely based around that and my Brexit fears, which were sadly confirmed.” The EP is available for purchase on his Bandcamp. Find Kindgom’s tracklist below, as well as a stream. Gold Panda’s last album, Good Luck and Do Your Best, was released last May.
