“Good vibrations galore.” MOJO 4*
“For both parties, it’s a welcome return to flat-out pop tunes…Reset is a frazzled singalong treat for late summer.” Telegraph 5*
“The most pleasurable release of either of their careers, the record aims consistently for gossamer melodies and propulsive rhythms and hits its targets again and again… Reset is a dose of human lightness in the drudgery of the now.” Pitchfork
“A joyous and revelatory reinvention.” Vogue
“Lennox and Kember create breezy sonic collages of sunshine melody, fluidly chugging rhythms and fizzling analogue synths…” Uncut 8/10
“Reset is timeless.” Guardian Music Guide
“Wonderfully life-affirming… nine cheerful and affecting numbers that encourage us to hold on to hope, and revel in the magic of the present moment.” Wall Street Journal
“Timeless melodies and canny samples unite to form a true jewel.” The Fader

Panda Bear (Noah Lennox) and Sonic Boom (Peter Kember) released their instant classic record Reset in August to acclaim from fans and critics; the collaboration was hailed as “a psychedelic love-letter to pop music” (TIME) and “the most pleasurable release of either of their careers” (Pitchfork). Reset was also named one of the best albums of the year by MOJO, Uncut, Vogue, Pitchfork, and more. Today, they announce their first ever UK/EU tour as a duo for early 2023.

Panda Bear and Sonic Boom also unveil the music video for “Gettin’ to the Point,” directed by Tame Horchata.
