: Release Notes: \/ , \/ ,
' '
,: Khruangbin has always been multilingual, weaving far-flung :,
: musical languages like East Asian surf-rock, Persian funk, and :
:' Jamaican dub into mellifluous harmony. But on its third album, ':
,: itÆs finally speaking out loud. Mordechai features vocals :,
: prominently on nearly every song, a first for the mostly :
:' instrumental band. ItÆs a shift that rewards the risk, ':
,: reorienting KhruangbinÆs transportive sound toward a new sense :,
: of emotional directness, without losing the spirit of nomadic :
:' wandering thatÆs always defined it. And it all started with ':
,: them coming home. :,
: :
:' By the summer of 2019, the Houston groupùbassist Laura Lee ':
,: Ochoa, guitarist Mark Speer, drummer DJ Johnsonùhad been on tour :,
: for nearly three-and-ahalf years, playing to audiences across :
:' North and South America, Europe, and southeast Asia behind its ':
,: acclaimed albums The Universe Smiles Upon You and Con Todo El :,
: Mundo. They returned to their farmhouse studio in Burton, Texas, :
:' ready to begin work on their third album. But they were also ':
,: determined to slow down, to take their time and luxuriate in :,
: building something together. :
:' ':
,: Musically, the bandÆs ever-restless ear saw it pulling reference :,
: points from Pakistan, Korea, and West Africa, incorporating :
:' strains of Indian chanting boxes and Congolese syncopated ':
,: guitar. But more than anything, the album became a celebration :,
: of Houston, the eclectic city that had nurtured them, and a :
:' cultural nexus where you can check out country and zydeco, trap ':
,: rap, or avant-garde opera on any given night. :,
: :
:' In those years away from home, KhruangbinÆs members often felt ':
,: like they were swimming underwater, unsure of where they were :,
: going, or why they were going there. But Mordechai leads them :
:' gently back to the surface, allowing them to take a breath, ':
,: look around, and find itself again. It is a snapshot taken along :,
: a larger journeyùa moment all the more beautiful for its :
:' impermanence. And itÆs a memory to revisit again and again, ':
,: speaking to us now more clearly than ever. :,
