Grimes: Geidi Primes Vinyl LP

Grimes’ full length debut from 2010 finally reissued!While not as ubiquitous as her breakout sophomore effort Visions, the often underratedGeidi Primesfound Claire Boucher stepping out with adreamy, eccentric sound that would become her signature. Compared to the aforementionedVisions, the production seems less refinedand in her own words, more “naive,” but itjust adds to the free and magical vibe of themusic. Includes the tracks “Caladan,” Rosa,” “Zoal Face Dancer,” “Avi,” “Venus in Fleurs,” and more. Bonus for the sci-fi nerdus, the title and many of the track names are in reference to Frank Hibert’s Dune, Claire’s favorite book. 2016 reissue on Arbutus with digital download included.
