YĪN YĪN
Take a look in advance
YĪN YĪN combines disco, funk, and psychedelic music with Southeast Asian influences to create a unique sound that is both retro and forward-thinking. In recent years, the Maastricht-based quartet has built an international reputation with their eclectic grooves, from Paradiso and Lowlands to Fuji Rock and Clockenflap. The band originated from an experimental jam session in a remote ballet school and has continued to evolve through albums such as *The Rabbit That Hunts Tigers*, *The Age Of Aquarius*, and *Mount Matsu*.

YĪN YĪN combines disco, funk, and psychedelic music with Southeast Asian influences to create a unique sound that is both retro and forward-thinking. In recent years, the Maastricht-based quartet has built an international reputation with their eclectic grooves, from Paradiso and Lowlands to Fuji Rock and Clockenflap. The band originated from an experimental jam session in a remote ballet school and has continued to evolve through albums such as *The Rabbit That Hunts Tigers*, *The Age Of Aquarius*, and *Mount Matsu*.
On her fourth album, *Yatta!*, these influences come together. The global tour inspired YĪN YĪN to incorporate influences from all corners of the globe, with Italo-disco taking center stage: the mysterious, spacious disco sound that emerged in Italy in the late 1970s. Psychedelic effects, synthesizers, and trippy guitar sounds give the music an almost cinematic atmosphere. One moment you imagine yourself in a 1960s Japanese soul-funk spy film; the next, in a psychedelic Thai spaghetti western.
“Yatta!” showcases just how deeply YĪN YĪN has found its own groove. The album effortlessly shifts between energetic dancefloor tracks and more laid-back soundscapes, without losing the band’s sense of curiosity and playfulness. The result is colorful, hypnotic world music with an irresistible urge to move.
