Vanishing Twin
MUSIC BAND
Title: 'Inside the Ethereal World of Vanishing Twin: An Extraordinary Blend of Alternative Indie Pop'
As one of the most intriguing and unique groups of the contemporary music scene, Vanishing Twin have carved their niche in the alternative indie-pop terrain defined by hypnotic beats, surreal soundscapes, and eclectic influences. The London-based band has been making waves through their enchanting sonic fusion and distinctive aesthetics, creating a musical universe that is highly atmospheric yet accessible.
Born in 2015 from multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Cathy Lucas' vision, Vanishing Twin quickly expanded with the inclusion of Valentina Magaletti on drums, Susumu Mukai on bass, Phil MFU on various instruments, and filmmaker Elliott Arndt on flute and percussion. Despite originating from different countries - England, Italy, Japan, France, and Belgium, the group came together in perfect harmony to create a sound that transcends genres and borders.
Immersed in a mix of psychedelia, electronic, and lounge exotica, the quintet crafts otherworldly music, relying heavily on analogue synthesizers, entrancing visuals, and evocative video projections during their live performances. Radiating a nostalgia for the space-age pop of the '60s, the ethereal soundscapes of the '70s, and the experimental edge of the '80s, Vanishing Twin’s sound is an amalgamation of recondite musical references and pioneering exploration.
From their debut album, ‘Choose Your Own Adventure' (2016), through to their latest work, 'The Age Of Immunology'(2019), Vanishing Twin have consistently pushed the boundaries of alternative music, creating a chillingly beautiful discography. Their music is a roller coaster of emotions, full of unexpected turns, spectral vocal harmonies, and a subtly disquieting undercurrent.
Their sophomore effort 'The Age Of Immunology' showcases their multicultural sensibilities and unique sonic approach. It's a concept album, relaying a dark but optimistic look at a future where differences are celebrated rather than feared—a world where the notion of 'immunology' represents acceptance over rejection, unity over division.
Their live performances are equally captivating. With each member donning bizarre protective clothing that plays into the 'Age Of Immunology' theme, combined with entrancing visuals and engaging video projections, their shows are much more than just live music—they're mesmerizingly performative experiences.
Vanishing Twin, while hailing from distinct origins, has brilliantly meshed their cultural influences to offer a unified presentation of innovative music. With their surreal sonic atmosphere and thought-provoking themes, Vanishing Twin continues to explore and shape the terrain of alternative indie-pop, leaving their captivating, otherworldly fingerprint on the musical landscape.
