Coming straight from the welsh parts of England, and crash landing into London, come the super-secretive producers and performers of twyaen, fusing the best parts of celtic-jazz and electronic-r&b-poppiness with slick, modern, sophisticated beats and vintage synth-work. "We used to write sort of folky songs," says head-sound-designer, code-named ThutDragon, "but after Bon Iver took off, we were like, 'oh fuck, now what?!', so we decided to go into a more atmospheric-tronica area". Meanwhile, live instrumentation, co-production and vocals are handled by the equally skilled front-person, simply known as Moors Trekkah, who reflects on the simplicity of the duo's recent debut song, "It's not, like, a ginormous production at all. It's pretty simple and there's not too much to distract the listener. I like that. It just, kinda, keeps the focus on the song and the sounds we used to put it together." Can we expect more of this, I asked them a month ago when I first interviewed them. "Yeah, as soon as we've finished building the studio, we'll get more tracks out. Hoping for an album out soon, if there's enough interest." Now, two months on, I ask m.t. about the inspiration behind their latest track, 'on the pettibone tide' which was uploaded mid-way into October on their Soundcloud page initially. "It was inspired by the colloquial name for a river that meets the sea, just off the coast near a beach I used to go as a kid. It's about that first wave that takes you to a new life, away from what you know but want to leave behind," he offers, "and I imagine it's how you feel as your dying, on the way to your next living plane." Twyaen's depth grows, let's see just how far they'll go next time.
