Rainbow Arabia: Local Groups We Love
Echo Park’s very own husband and wife duo, Danny and also Tiffany Preston share their distinct model of music as the band Rainbow Arabia. They recently introduced the full length “Boys and Diamonds” (Kompakt), offering a considerably evolved sound, while staying true to their own progressive tendencies.
On this record especially, they carved out there that delicate balance among avant-garde and pop by fusing makes in unexpected harmony. You’ll get yourself a real sense of this from other first single “Without You.” People biting vocals lay completely over pseudo-African instrumentation. Effected drums pulled ahead of tribal danceable rhythms yielding comparisons to The Knife and A fever Ray and a real art-house attractiveness.
Rainbow Arabia defy distinction, proudly thriving in their own distinctive world while renouncing all ties to a particular time or spot. While their cultural has a bearing on are wide, they share a common visceral and natural quality that is either carefully thought-out or wonderfully improvised to beautiful results. My guess is it’s a variety of both.
“Boys and Diamonds” is an recording that requires several listens to completely appreciate. I continue to notice new and surprising elements on each new run-through. It is best to get yourself a copy and accomplish the same.
