ddwy

Welsh duo ddwy - Naomi and Ronan - continue their slow-burn rise with a luminous four-tracker that fuses ambient shimmer with dubwise propulsion.

'Beaming Backwards' opens on a melodic tip, weaving arpeggiated pads around a restrained but propulsive groove. 'Stars Stars' leans hazier, its synth textures and soft-focus rhythms blurring the line between dream pop and deep house.

On the B-side, 'Peak Smile' introduces low-slung bass and echo chamber FX, pushing their sound into more dubbed-out territory. Final track 'Heuldro'r Haf' (Welsh for "summer solstice") floats in beatless form - misty, delicate, and grounded by a sense of melancholic stasis.

Having previously appeared on Munich's Public Possession, ddwy now offer their most balanced and evocative work to date, signalling a quietly assured presence in the continuum of melodic, leftfield UK electronica.
