An ethereal distillation and re-working of the Montreal group’s original “Do You Dream?” LP. Underscoring its explorative nature, the constant movement of “Do You Dream? Mixtape” melds the sounds of experimental pop and improv into a magical amalgam that teems with flashes of jazz and nuanced electronics. Iyer’s rhythm section pulsates with genre-defying palettes of blips and skitters that twist elegantly into the melodic voices of interlocking synth, strings, and piano, all led by Iyer’s enrapturing lilt. The rhythmic direction of bassist Alexander Kasirer-Smibert and percussionist Daniel Gelinas clears a navigable path in an otherwise unnavigable setting, built on the pair’s understated yet intriguing expertise.
