condon does it again

Zach Condon’s latest double release EP is a split of both minimal electronica and the classic Beirut sound.  During our show at Clementine last night, I discovered their existence and went to buy it this afternoon.  When I put the Realpeople disc into my stereo, the first song brought tears to my eyes.  Oh the sound.  Pitchfork does the release great justice in their latest interview with Condon, to be found here [though I didn't quite understand the photograph included with the article]:
