Shelter Twins

"Shelter Twins" is the first album to be released by the eponymous Swiss duo and the first 12" record on Wise Bird.

With vibes ranging from oriental nu beat to deep house and pianistic dnb, the six tracks weave an authentic sonorous journey. Thanks to its dramatic tones combined to a banging nu beat dynamics, "Le Jardin Noir" opens the album with style. Follows the eponymous track "Shelter Twins", a fast paced deep house banger from outer space. "L'Autre Monde" closes the A-side with a more percussive beat. The B-side focuses on more introspective beats with Exil, a pianistic liquid drum and bass, Le Dernier Voyage, a heart-breaking ambient trip and Phendrana Memories, a final leap into dream house.

Firstly united with no more intention than to enjoy making music together for a few days, Timour Nigolian aka Mirlaqi and Yann Longchamp quickly realized there was much more to be done together. The idea of a full album was forced by the quantity and quality of material left from those few days of creation. This naturally led to the project of actually playing live. Shelter Twins were born.
