$1.00
“…I’ve Been Trying To Crash The Wrong Party….”
Mixed By Dean Hurley
Mastered By Mike Bozzi At Bernie Grundman Mastering
Dlina Volny translates into the English word “Wavelength.” Their name is an homage to their fascination with sine waves & the physics of sound. The Belarusian trio’s sophomore album Dazed is a self-proclaimed “Love Thriller”. Mixed by Dean Hurley, frequent David Lynch collaborator & producer, the record is gorgeous. Elegant synthesis is flanked by the brut low end of the rhythm section. The instruments set the stage for contralto vocals that hover like a warm fog on a chilly night. Hurley is also the engineer who brought us Jorja Chalmers’ “Midnight Train” earlier this year, as well as remixes for Italians Do It Better flagship artists Desire & Chromatics.
On Dazed, Masha Zinevitch’s voice wails & pivots between Ales Shishlo assault of morse-code arpeggios & icy sheets of Vad Mikutski electric guitar. Dlina Volny’s music vaporizes on the event horizon where Eastern European Post-Punk collides with Western Synthwave. The album balances mystical narratives & dreamlike fantasies sourced deep in the trio’s subconscious. Walking the tightrope that separates pain & euphoria, the lyrics wrestle with polarity. Anxiety vs passion, & hope vs the deep despair that surrounds negative space.
Aesthetically, Dazed encompasses 1980s Estrada Pop & the 1970s brutalist architecture that pierces the Minsk sky. It’s perfect for autumn & we couldn’t be happier to share it with you.
“When it’s sunny here, it looks like a Soviet fairytale come true. On a dark day, it looks like dystopia.”
