- Context
- In 2009, Discovery, a side project of Vampire Weekend's Rostam Batmanglij and Ra Ra Riot's Wes Miles, released their debut album 'LP'. This marked their first foray into the music scene outside of their primary bands, showcasing a playful exploration of electronic music infused with pop elements. At this point in their careers, both artists were already recognized within indie circles but sought to carve out a distinct identity with this project.
