Animal Collective are to release their EP ‘Prospect Hummer’ as a re-issue for this year’s Record Store Day. The original release by FatCat Records was in 2005 and featured singer Vashti Bunyan on three of the four tracks.

‘Prospect Hummer’ was recorded by Rusty Santos in London during 2004, just after they released ‘Sung Tongs’ and prior to their 2005 album ‘Feels’. The tracklist for the EP is as follows:
1. ‘It’s You’
2. ‘Prospect Hummer’
3. ‘Baleen Sample’
4. ‘I Remember Learning How To Dive’.
