Thai psychrock influenced band Yīn Yīn release their 3rd album, Mount Matsu.
Hailing from Holland’s southernmost city of Maastricht, Yīn Yīn entered the scene back in 2019 with the Thai psychrock influenced album The Rabbit that Hunts Tigers, which was followed up in 2022 with the more spiritual and cosmic sounding The Age of Aquarius and, now, their 3rd album Mount Matsu.
Sticking to pentatonic scales, the band’s largely instrumental sound – created with a unique set of instruments including vintage synthesizers and a traditional Chinese string instrument; the ‘Guzheng’, – features big jumps between notes with melodies that are easy to love as they draw the listener into unfamiliar oriental territories.
