The Rabbit That Hunts Tigers

YĪN YĪN

Released

2019

Much like their Texan spirit animals Khruangbin, Maastricht-based collective Yin Yin fashioned South-East Asian music into a potent strain of groove-driven psych rock. While it leant heavily on the region’s traditional instrumentation, their entirely instrumental 2020 debut threw its net far and wide, pulling in Krautrock, desert-parched African blues, ’60s psychedelia and on closing track “Dis Ko Dis Ko,” the robotic throb of Giorgio Moroder, finding the common thread in an entire history of music.
