Person Pitch is the third solo album by American recording artist Noah Lennox under his alias Panda Bear, released on March 20, 2007 by Paw Tracks.

Departing stylistically from his prior work as both a member of Animal Collective and a solo artist, the album was recorded using the Boss SP-303 sampler, with instrumentation largely composed of manipulated samples and loops, accompanied by Lennox's layered vocals.

Lennox recorded Person Pitch over a two-year period, working slowly because he lacked large stretches of time to dedicate to the material in between tours with Animal Collective.

"[12] He attributed the brighter sound of the project to his move to Lisbon, Portugal and recent familial developments, saying: A lot of the songs on Person Pitch are kind of sugary.

[11] Sampled sources include a track by singer Kylie Minogue, a rondo by the 14th-century composer Guillaume de Machaut, a dub reggae production by Lee "Scratch" Perry, and 1960s instrumental group the Tornados performing "Popeye Twist.

[11] Person Pitch departs from the guitar-based sound and loosely rock-oriented format of Lennox's previous work, both as a member of Animal Collective and on his solo releases.

[16] Spin described it as "steeped in '60s-style harmony and post-rock noise," and "mash[ing] up traces of the Beach Boys with digital burbles, elevator chimes, and something that sounds like bubble wrap being popped.

"[17] Entertainment Weekly also noted influences from the "sunny California sound of the Beach Boys/Mamas and the Papas era [...] filtered through a playful avant-garde sieve.

"[18] Critic Simon Reynolds described its style as "a unique and refreshing sound [made] almost entirely out of percussion and his own multi-tracked voice," noting the influence of Lennox’s "teenage years singing in a high school choir.

[8] Writing in The Observer, Simon Reynolds described the album's sound as "tribal, ecstatic yet eerie, brimming with child-like wonder," and felt that Lennox successfully "pulls off the trick of being simultaneously poppy and abstract".

"[29] Phillip Buchan of PopMatters called the album the "most sonically satisfying statement to emerge yet from the Collective", though he was less complimentary towards its lyrics, which he felt lacked a "representational capacity" to "show us anything outside our selves.

"[15] Person Pitch was named the top album of 2007 by Pitchfork[31] and placed at number 13 on The Village Voice's Pazz & Jop year-end critics' poll.

"[4] The Line of Best Fit stated that Lennox won "wild acclaim and admiration for the album’s groundbreaking combo of cutting edge sampledelica and heavily Beach Boys-influenced dream pop" while "the newfound emphasis on electronics also had a huge impact on the output of Lennox’s day job Animal Collective," influencing their 2009 album Merriweather Post Pavilion.
