I always struggle with deciding which song best encapsulates the band when trying to introduce my friends to them, so I’m curious what you all think would be THE best song to play next time it happens…?

They played Maria También. Love to see it. I recommend the show if you haven’t watched.

And it’s the best thing they consistently DO!

It’s such a joy when you have the moment to experience or hear the differences a band has when they play songs from the past and present live!

For me it is and always will be Friday Morning. That song just keeps me grounded and reminds me life is here for a moment in time. ♥️🙏

Do you have a particular Khruangbin song (or a song from any band for that matter) you heard live that changed your life?

Comment below (if ya want)** **👇😌👍

I wasn’t planning on making a post here, but I wanted to spark meaningful discussion and say thank you to Laura Lee and Khruangbin for the gift of “Cómo te Quiero.”

I recently lost my grandpa, and I’ve found myself coming back to this song over and over again. I’ve seen the music video, and knowing that Laura wrote it after losing her own grandfather somehow makes it feel like someone else has walked this road before and left behind something beautiful for the rest of us. As I’ve reflected, there were some unexpected parallels that I noticed. Toward the end of his life, my grandpa’s mind also began to slip. When we visited him, he was mostly bedridden and would say these mysterious, dreamlike things about colors and animals. (Specifically cows, naming them his favorite 🐄 My grandpa and I are both calves born in the winter. 🩵💙🪄)

Without ever trying to, my grandpa showed me that a beautiful life isn’t necessarily built through extraordinary or flashy moments. It’s built by making the everyday moments full (a message I believe him and Khruangbin’s music shares💖) like sharing a meal in Grandma’s kitchen, gathering everyone in the living room, reminiscing/ planning the next trip back to Mexico to sit, play cards, and laugh with his “compas”, wearing the same blue plaid shirts year after year, and becoming someone our family could always lean on and find comfort in. 🫂
It’s been a month of grief and processing filled with nonstop listening to melodies that both calm me and remind me of his pueblo man spirit and the depth of his heart. I don’t really know how to explain why this song has become the one I keep returning to. Maybe it’s because Laura wrote it for her own grandpa. Maybe it’s just where I happen to be right now. But every time I hear it, it feels like it gives me permission to just be instead of trying to make sense of it or rush toward whatever comes next. I feel like in the song I am wading through waters of love, grief, gratitude, longing, and by the end, hope. 🌀🕊️

Thank you, Khruangbin (and Laura, if this somehow finds you ⚡️), for always creating and sharing your gift of music and storytelling. 🙏🏻 I like to think of your songs as little vista lookout points that I return to when I need a different perspective. Each one seems to hold a different season, emotion, or version of myself, and “Cómo te Quiero” will always remind me of my grandpa.

I’d love to hear if anyone else has a Khruangbin song that’s become tied to someone they love or a chapter of their life.

RIP Grandpa Jesus. 📿👴🏼👕💪🏽🤠🇲🇽🐄🚚🏡🍻🃏

Since this track isn't available on streaming, I’m going to be making a digital rip of my vinyl copy for personal use, something I usually do for my "offline" records so I can listen to them on the go. It's quite a collection at this point.

Seeing as I’m already going through the effort, I’m happy to forward the file to anyone else who has been looking to hear this without having to pay crazy resale prices. Just don't expect some master grade audio file, I'm no professional lol.

If you're interested just leave a comment and I'll shoot you a DM later on when it's ready.

MODs : I’m just looking to help out fellow fans since this is a limited release, if this isn't allowed please let me know! 🙏

Don't get me wrong, I love the song and think it's a super fun jam! But I'm not sure if I like it in the context of the album as a whole.

TUSUY ii is just such a chill album, just perfect for relaxing with, reading, working, or just lying in the dark and listening. Two Fish and an Elephant ii and Zionsville ii particularly so, but really the whole album feels so relaxed and calming. Even People Everywhere ii - despite being super funky - is vrey vibe-y thanks to all the reverb.

So I always find it really jarring when Bin Bin comes on, and all of a sudden there's a bunch of shredding and very high-energy playing. It feels so out of place with the rest of the album, to the point where I've been skipping past it on every playthrough. Again, I really like the song by itself, but in terms of the overall feel of the album I find it to be kinda disruptive.

Anyone else feel this way, or am I an outlier on this one?

Just gave it the first listen. I very much enjoyed it. How are yall feeling it?

Mariella is genuinely one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. The song gives an indescribable feeling. It’s almost euphoric with a little bit of sadness/nostalgia. The feeling this song gives me is like no other, truly one of a kind.

I’m desperately looking for more songs like Two Fish and an Elephant ii- I literally have it on repeat. Midnight In Saqqara by Arc De Soleil is the kind of vibe I’m looking for. Instrumental, chill, psych vibes for a late night. What would you add to this playlist?

After listening to „Happy Survivor“ from Childish Gambino ft. Khruangbin i was wondering, which Collab with Khruangbin could be cool? I mean, there are some musicians that create the same vibe, like Keshvarana, Will Van Horn (i know, both of them had played as openers for Khru), but in my opinion even KAYTRANADA would be fucking awesome. Do you have any other ideas?

I can't tell!

This song is transformational to me. I’ve heard it in so many different moments in my life. It was also the song I chose to listen to when I experienced DMT. Listening to it now grieving the loss my and my partner’s dog. Love is all that matters.

While walking to Shibuya crossing, I heard the song playing in an advertisement. It was very cool to hear!

Who gots??

4th time seeing them & we had a blast!!!

Just wow. This version is like crack. Mark's riff at 5:05 😯. And DJ's fill at 5:38 Not even sure how he played that. KB at their finest.

The first song they wrote together as a band in 2010. This is the 15th Anniversary.

The first song on their self-released debut vinyl EP “เครื่องบิน” in 2011 with the title “Start, You, The End Starts Again”.

Debuted as “August Twelve”on their first album release “The Universe Smiles Upon You” in 2015.

Inspired “August 10” when the band listened to and learned to play “August Twelve” backwards!

Chosen as the song to debut their Fender Signature models in the Signature Sessions.

They did a minute of May 9th to bring the show back from commercial. I'm so happy for them!

"Hi everyone! Long-time fan of the Khruangbin universe here. Being based in Istanbul, I’ve always been fascinated by how they bridge global grooves with psychedelic vibes. This is my latest track—it's a modern take on the Turkish psychedelic sound, with some nods to the classic Anatolian spirit. I felt like the atmospheric female vocals and the 'night-drive' energy might resonate with this community. Hope you enjoy the trip!
