Our Take

In the vast universe of modern music, Khruangbin’s latest offering, "The Universe Smiles Upon You," shines like a beacon of pure sonic bliss. This Texan trio - consisting of Laura Lee on bass, Mark Speer on guitar, and Donald “DJ” Johnson on drums - have created a tranquil, psychedelic masterpiece that transports listeners to a realm of groovy tranquility. From the opening track, "Mr. White," with its hypnotic bassline and ethereal guitar riffs, to the dreamy closer, "White Gloves," Khruangbin take us on a cosmic journey through a kaleidoscope of mellow melodies and laid-back rhythms. The album's instrumental tracks, laced with influences from Thai funk and Middle Eastern psych, create a unique blend of sounds that is both familiar and otherworldly. Each song on "The Universe Smiles Upon You" is a sonic gem, filled with intricate layers of instrumentation and expertly crafted arrangements. Tracks like "Two Fish and an Elephant" and "People Everywhere (Still Alive)" showcase the band's ability to effortlessly blend genres and create a sound that is entirely their own. With its woozy vibes and chilled-out grooves, Khruangbin's sophomore effort is a true gem in the ever-evolving landscape of modern music. So sit back, relax, and let the universe smile upon you with this transcendent record. Khruangbin has truly crafted a sonic masterpiece that will leave you in a state of pure musical euphoria.
