We're writing a new album
Added 2021-07-07 16:17:25 +0000 UTCHello dear patrons...
We're writing to let you know that we are in the midst of creating our next full-length album. It's going to be a really big project and undertaking, and we're massively excited for where it's heading. The concept is quite different from our previous work, and we're still in the early stages of writing, but we will share more with you as the process unfolds (and we promise it won't take 3 years :D)
To help with the workload, for some of the upcoming months we will be releasing some of our older music (exclusively to Patreon). We are sitting on tonnes of unreleased tracks that never saw the light of day, and we want to make these available to you!
So, if there are any tracks of ours that you want to get your hands on, now is the time to let us know! Leave your suggestions in the comments below.
Much love,
Jim + Will

I would love to get ahold of the version of strident that you guys used to open your set at shambhala 2018, that last drop is insane

2021-08-18 03:09:48 +0000 UTCThe one towards the beginning of Seclusion Fusion, Planet i think?
Griffin Hall
2021-07-20 19:12:03 +0000 UTCNaw, not Enchanted. Thatβs before Sentient. Iβm talking about the one after. I do really love Enchanted though!
Peter Johnson
2021-07-20 05:39:46 +0000 UTCThe track after Chilly Daddy in the Polychrome Live mix which starts at 41:28. Also, a very old track called "Happy People", the sequel to Happy Hipsters which was supposed to get a release on Screwloose but never saw the light of day. Wachs Lyrical - Butters (KOAN Sound Remix) The track after OPIUO - Life (KOAN Sound Remix) in the Polychrome mix. Great news about the album! Wishing you an inspired and smooth process of creation.

2021-07-19 13:07:58 +0000 UTCI obsessed over the track right after Sentient on the Polychrome mix. Itβs so funky and catchy that itβs one of my go-to work songs! Would love to hear it in its entirety
Peter Johnson
2021-07-15 19:58:35 +0000 UTCWide open - I bloody love the vibes and feel of this. Same as sugar and cream!!!!
Pete Stephens
2021-07-14 16:27:49 +0000 UTCNaughty! There's an old wip up on YouTube of a radio play, I always hoped that would get release I love the funky rhythm and accordion sounding thingy π
Pete Stephens
2021-07-14 16:24:13 +0000 UTCAlways love those VIP's you guys dropped in those mixes over quarantine and such, looking forward to your upcoming works as well! much love :)
Nick Diponio
2021-07-13 06:44:58 +0000 UTCHonestly would love any ID that is a bit on the "harder" side of things - would love to hear a new track similar to the vibes from Tetsuo's Redemption or Forgotten Myths. Good luck with the new Album! Can't wait to hear it!
Griffin Yale
2021-07-12 15:09:18 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure it's the one that starts at 7 minutes in their PolyChrome live set! https://soundcloud.com/koan-sound/polychrome-live
Garrett Davenport
2021-07-12 00:32:28 +0000 UTCAll the unreleased one's in your polychrome mix are banoonanoos and would love have. The one that drops at about 16 minutes in is a bit too filthy though, it always hurts me if I don't stretch first..
Phat Bastard
2021-07-11 18:10:20 +0000 UTCPlease please PLEASE can you release the full version of the first track in this vid?? It's just so damn dirty! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LE1oAf11e9A&list=LL&index=12
Garrett Davenport

Kimble

Kimble
2021-07-10 23:14:46 +0000 UTCI really love the track right after 'Opiuo - Life (KOAN Sound Remix)' in the Polychrome Mix, about 54:15 into the mix. Love the funkyness of that one <3
Teus van der Meij
2021-07-10 00:11:45 +0000 UTCPlanet. and the track just before prism pulse in the polychrome live mix
Truman Levine
2021-07-09 23:30:11 +0000 UTCSo stoked to hear you guys are working on another album :) I would love to get my hands on the track that came after chilli daddy in your shambhala 2018 set as well as the vip mixes of forgotten myths and drift.
Dylan Pounder
2021-07-09 18:09:20 +0000 UTCStrike was the song that got me into your work! Does 2015 count as old? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZmO9Nd_Rws

2021-07-08 13:16:10 +0000 UTCMan this is exciting!! I know these are all old tracks but I would love it if we could get any of the following; Solar Mafia VIP Butters remix Resistance Naughty Dark Room Go Rock Shoe Shine Redemption There's also this track that featured in your Hivemind mix from 16/2/11 that I have no idea the name of but I have a cut of if that would help. (I'd love to even know the name of that one)
Shane (Hierophant)
2021-07-08 11:36:23 +0000 UTC'ID' is a general term for tracks that are unreleased and have no name yet. Find where in the livestreams this track was played and post the timestamp(s) :D

james gould
2021-07-08 08:01:19 +0000 UTCThose are my favourite IDs by you. The first one is probabily my favorite Koan Sound track ever. https://soundcloud.com/mynameisalreadytaken/sets/koan-sound-ids/s-pfVJV7R3axt
Lukher

Jack Gandy
2021-07-07 23:26:47 +0000 UTCThis is amazing! My personal votes are from the Polychrome mix (song 1 starts at 41:30 and song 2 from 54:20). Besides planet and all the other great suggestions on here, these 2 to me are just π₯π₯π₯. Stay awesome, guys!

Joakim Nilsen
2021-07-07 21:48:15 +0000 UTCYES I literally rushed in here to name those three specific songs. I've been listening to every version of those through live rips since like 2015. Especially "Unreleased intro song". I would also throw in this version of the ID after Cobalt in the Polychrome mix: https://youtu.be/EE3fHMHbsms?t=147
Joakim Nilsen
2021-07-07 21:44:24 +0000 UTCAwesome news guys, cant wait! Main tracks I'd love to hear a release are the one after Sentient in the polychrome mix (that shit slaps) the tune after talk box in said mix again, and also the one after prism pulse. You know, THAT intro song that you teased us with for years π
Ash
2021-07-07 20:51:02 +0000 UTCSoo excited about the album!! Guys, I would love to know what this track is! (Pls excuse my housemate π) - https://youtube.com/shorts/1c2o1IB4x1g?feature=share
Ted Epsom
2021-07-07 20:49:47 +0000 UTCHave you guys ever released ID yet? I remember hearing it in the Garden Party and Polychrome Live streams and absolutely loved it, yet I searched and don't think you ever released it. Would love to see it released!
RadicalRaizex
2021-07-07 20:44:17 +0000 UTCPLEASE release Sugar and Cream!!
Cormac
2021-07-07 20:09:31 +0000 UTCYoo so happy to hear this! The tune at 54:37 from Polychrome Live would be my choice :)

Foreigna
2021-07-07 18:59:54 +0000 UTCNew album announcement and the opportunity to ask for old dubs, so much excitement in one post :D Been hoping for a release on the ID from the Stickybuds 2017 Shambhala mix since I first heard it so that would definitely be an awesome one to get through here! Also the intro on UKF thanks a billion set and Sex as have been previously mentioned and would be wicked too :)
Foreigna
2021-07-07 18:48:58 +0000 UTCBest news I've gotten in months, super hyped guys holy S***. Good luck, have fun, enjoy the journey. There are still a handful of your unreleased tracks from your polychrome / visual stream mix that drive me crazy, anything from there would be awesome.
Nicholas Tartaglia
2021-07-07 18:47:09 +0000 UTCThere's definitely a few from your UKF - Thanks a billion set that I would love to see released. The first track of the set and the one called Sex in particular
David Boulton
2021-07-07 18:22:04 +0000 UTCDo you guys still have the track βSolarβ laying around somewhere? Loved that one!
Brian Kooistra

Stasys Musial
2021-07-07 16:36:14 +0000 UTCThat's amazing news boys ! 1 track I've been personally waiting for is in the Polychrome mix at 21 mins in. I first heard it at the Village at shambhala 2015 I believe, that tune still rocks my socks off till this day. But if you're saving that one for live sets only I completely understand.
Ryan Dekker
2021-07-07 16:33:09 +0000 UTCI'm so excited!
Lucky Hugs
2021-07-07 16:29:27 +0000 UTCThat track from Polychrome Live that starts about 32 minutes in!!!
