Limited repress of much anticipated debut album from this Leeds-based electronic duo, following high-profile UK festival slots, and shows alongside luminaries Sleaford Mods, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Warmduscher, Sea Power, Moonlandingz, The KVB, jellyskin are finally ready to unleash In Brine, their first full length release. The result of four years spent writing, recording, and refining the album between Leeds, Liverpool, Bristol, Palamos, and Berlin, In Brine showcases the many talents of Will Ainsley and Zia Larty-Healy in a work straddling iridescent electronica, tungsten-tipped techno, art pop, and queasy, brown acid folk. The songs are pieced together with themes of longing, misadventure by the sea, desire and aquatic apparitions that showcase Larty-Healy's warm but urgent vocal range, as at home around the campfire as it is in the club. The pair's meticulous arrangement and rearrangement, sculpting, recording, and mixing was a glacially slow process of adaptation, mutation, cooperation, growth, and, yes, natural selection. The pair brought in Berlin based co-producer, mixer and masterer Lewis D-t to help finesse the tracks into fat-free hunks of ecstasy and sonic exploration, their rich depths marking In Brine as an album everyone should be talking about this summer and beyond-all nine tracks will have feet moving and hearts swelling in equal measure.
