Diggin’ This: YĪN YĪN – “Takahashi Timing” (Glitterbeat Records)

 

A highly danceable tropical indie-pop groove recorded in the Belgian countryside, naturally.

 

 

 

YĪN YĪN returns with “Takahashi Timing.”

 

 

The Dutch four-piece from Maastricht have been cooking up a melting pot of sounds for their new album, which reportedly “occupy(s) a no man’s land between Khruangbin and Kraftwerk, surf music and Southeast Asian psychedelia, Stax soul and mutant 80s disco, City pop and Japanese instrumental folk (sōkyoku).”

 

 

Love, love, love that synth bass.
