Singer, violinist, songwriter, composer, and arranger extraordinaire Owen Pallett has recently released a new album, Island, full of some of their most ambitious music yet. And that's saying something. (Pallett says that "there are more parts than a Ligeti score.")

Pallett is known both for their own music: several albums of songs, the film score for Her, and work for the Barbican and Bang on a Can; and their orchestrating work - which runs the gamut from folk, to punk, to R & B, to orchestral pop, and many off-kilter and fantastical tangents in between - with Arcade Fire, Frank Ocean, Fucked Up, Caribou, Taylor Swift, The Mountain Goats, Grizzly Bear, Linkin Park, and many others. For this remote edition of the podcast, Pallett and their instruments and looping station play songs that span their career. 

Set list: "Paragon of Order," "I Am Not Afraid," "This Is The Dream Of Win And Regine"
