Our Take

Vanishing Twin's latest offering, 'Afternoon Xin', is a kaleidoscopic journey through space and time that will leave you both mesmerised and slightly confused. The London-based outfit is known for their eclectic sound, blending elements of psychedelia, jazz, and electronic music into a sonic soup that is as unpredictable as it is delightful.

The album opens with the dreamy 'You are Not an Island', a track that sets the tone for the rest of the record with its hazy vocals and swirling synths. From there, we are taken on a whirlwind tour of musical genres, from the funky rhythms of 'Planète Sauvage' to the ethereal beauty of 'Invisible World'.

Lead singer Cathy Lucas's enchanting voice serves as a guiding light through this sonic odyssey, leading us through the labyrinth of sound that Vanishing Twin has expertly crafted. The band's attention to detail is evident in every track, with layers of instrumentation building upon each other to create a rich tapestry of sound.

'Afternoon Xin' is a record that demands repeated listens, each spin revealing new depths and intricacies that were previously hidden. It's a testament to Vanishing Twin's talent and creativity that they can create such a cohesive and immersive listening experience. So sit back, relax, and let Vanishing Twin transport you to a world where anything is possible.
