Part dancefloor euphoria, part soundtrack to a dream… we predict a meteoric rise. FFO: Melody’s Echo Chamber, Blonde Redhead, Purity Ring, Death In Vegas."

The Bristol-formed group, named by DIY as ‘boundary-pushing’, have unveiled their latest track, produced by band members Eric Davies and Claudia Vulliamy in their East London studio. The track was mixed by Matteo Buccomino and mastered by John Webber.
Marking a new era since their highly-praised 2023 debut EP Back To Nothing (released via Ali Chant’s Fascination Street Records), ‘Sally’ brings us straight in with a punchy and relentlessly catchy bassline. Clean and intricately syncopated, this track is a lusciously textured showcase of Oslo Twins’ evolving sound, which is venturing into cleaner, more electronic territory.
Hidden in the song’s infectious beat and joyful synths, there is a tone of yearning and melancholia. Pithy and vernacular lyrics in the verses hint at hidden emotions, while the chorus reveals what’s behind the cool facade:
“Each release only seems to get catchier.” Line Of Best Fit
