A South American take on Perth psychedelic giants Pond.

More Pond More Pond

The influence of Perth-based psychedelic rockers Pond continues to expand, with an Argentine music collective rallying South American artists together for a digital tribute release.

Collective Kilimanjaro enlisted five local acts to give their take on Giant Tortoise, Allergies, and three other classics, in a short, sharp homage that proves music does indeed transcend boundaries.

With Argentina hosting one of the world’s strongest psychedelic scenes, and Pond always touring abroad, such a release was inevitable.

Sascha Karushima’s take on Don't Look At The Sun Or You'll Go Blind goes a little more electronic and ambient than the original, whereas Rod Mo have opted to keep their track, single Giant Tortoise, closer to the original.
