Our Take

AUDIOBOOKS' latest album "Astro Toughin" is a wild ride that's as unpredictable as a British summer. From the opening track "Friends in the Bubble Bath" to the cosmic sounds of "Space Shuttle Bus," this album is a non-stop explosion of creativity and experimentation.

The duo, David Wrench and Evangeline Ling, have crafted a sound that is equal parts futuristic and nostalgic. The eclectic blend of electronic beats, quirky samples, and Ling's haunting vocals create a sonic landscape that is truly out of this world.

Tracks like "Sucker for a Sequel" and "Dance While the Sky Crashes Down" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend genres and create something entirely unique. It's like a musical mixtape from the future, sent back in time to blow our minds.

While "Astro Toughin" may not be for everyone, it's clear that AUDIOBOOKS have a clear vision and aren't afraid to push the boundaries of what is considered "normal" in the music industry. So grab your space helmet, buckle up, and prepare for a musical journey that is sure to leave you dazzled and delighted. Trust us, this is one album you won't want to miss.

About the artist

Audiobooks

London-based duo AUDIOBOOKS is a dynamic force in the world of electronic music, known for their unique blend of danceable beats and introspective lyrics. Consisting of producers David Wrench and Evangeline Ling, the duo burst onto the scene in 2018 with their debut EP "Gothenburg", which garnered critical acclaim for its innovative sound and infectious hooks. Wrench, known for his work with artists such as Caribou and FKA Twigs, brings a wealth of experience to the project, while Ling's ethereal vocals add a captivating layer of emotion to their music. Together, they create a sonic landscape that is at once nostalgic and forward-thinking, drawing inspiration from a wide range of influences, from 80s synth-pop to underground club music. AUDIOBOOKS' latest album, "Now! (in a minute)", is a bold and adventurous statement that showcases the duo's evolution as artists. With tracks like "Hot Salt" and "Trust", they explore themes of love, loss, and personal growth with a playful and irreverent attitude. Their live performances are a sight to behold, with Wrench and Ling bringing a high-energy, interactive experience that enraptures audiences from start to finish. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to their music, experiencing AUDIOBOOKS live is an unforgettable experience that will leave you buzzing for days. In a world saturated with cookie-cutter pop acts, AUDIOBOOKS stands out as a truly original force to be reckoned with. With their infectious energy, genre-defying sound, and undeniable talent, this duo is poised for even greater success in the years to come.
