Excited? Of course you are, you've seen that video with bouncy castles and shit. Well, not shit. That would be horrific...

Anyways, content so far includes a video interview with the twosome, an artsy photo gallery, an mpfree and Polly talking about their partnership.

Micachu + Grizzly Bear

The Fader arranged an interview with Micachu at the Levi's/FADER Fort at SXSW. Then they heard that Grizzly Bear "loved" Micachu. Then Grizzly Bear did the interview. The resulting cross-talking larks are to be found below.
