Our Take

AUDIOBOOKS' latest offering, "Now (In A Minute)", is a whimsical journey through a sonic Wonderland that defies all expectations. This dynamic duo, consisting of Evangeline Ling and David Wrench, have somehow managed to craft an album that is both delightfully chaotic and ingeniously structured.

From the outset, you are greeted with a cacophony of disparate sounds that somehow manage to come together in a harmonious cacophony that is as confusing as it is captivating. Each track feels like a miniature universe in itself, with Ling's whimsical vocals floating atop Wrench's intricate production like a psychedelic dream.

Tracks like "Dance Nothing" and "Call of the Estates" showcase the duo's ability to weave together melodic hooks with layers of experimental soundscapes, creating a dense tapestry of sound that reveals new surprises with each listen. Ling's distinctive vocals are both haunting and playful, as she flits between spoken word passages and soaring choruses with effortless ease.

As the album draws to a close with the shimmering "Hot Salt", you are left feeling like you've just emerged from a fever dream, slightly disoriented but undeniably exhilarated. "Now (In A Minute)" is a testament to the boundless creativity of AUDIOBOOKS, and a reminder that sometimes the most rewarding music is the one that doesn't fit neatly into any genre or preconceived notion. Sit back, press play, and let yourself be swept away on this wondrous musical odyssey.
