If that wasn't enough we have a special DJ set from Caribou!!!!!

2007's Andorra, the last album from Dan Snaith's ever-mutating psych-pop project Caribou, appeared on Pitchfork's year-end list and won Canada's Polaris Music Prize.

This is your FIRST chance to hear tracks off his latest album 'Swim.'

Snaith recorded the album in Wales and in Junior Boy Jeremy Greenspan's Hamilton, Ontario studio. Guest stars include a quartet of Toronto free-jazz horn players and Born Ruffians' Luke Lalonde, who sings closer "Jamelia".

In a statement, Snaith described the album's sound thusly: "I got excited by the idea of making dance music that's liquid in the way it flows back and forth, the sounds slosh around in pitch, timbre, pan... Dance music that sounds like it's made out of water, rather than made out of metallic stuff like most dance music does."

Entry is FREE so get down early to avoid being stuck in the queue.
