Hold Me

My Favourite Place


Black of the night, a silver moonbeam
Stillness of a quiet, flowing stream
The cool, soft earth below my feet
A rhythm that is slow and sweet

It's the yin and the yang, a cosmic duet
The push and the pull, ain't finished yet
One cannot live without the other's grace
Finding the balance in time and space

White of the day, the fire of the sun
A beat in the heart 'til the race is run
The spark of a thought, a brilliant idea
A confident voice, casting out the fear

It's the yin and the yang, a cosmic duet
The push and the pull, ain't finished yet
One cannot live without the other's grace
Finding the balance in time and space

You can't have the shadow without the light
Can't know what is wrong 'til you see what's right
A circle complete, a perfect design
Your half of the world, and my half is mine... together...

It's the yin and the yang, a cosmic duet!
The push and the pull, we ain't finished yet!
One cannot live without the other's grace!
Finding our balance in time and space!

The yin... and the yang...

Yin and Yang

Taking influence from 1960's Thai funk - their name literally translates to "Engine Fly" in Thai - Khruangbin’s debut album ‘The Universe Smiles Upon You’ is steeped in the bass-heavy, psychedelic sound of their inspiration, Tarantino soundtracks, and surf-rock cool. The Texan trio is formed of Laura Lee on bass, Mark Speer on guitar, and Donald “DJ” Johnson on drums.

‘The Universe Smiles Upon You’ was recorded at their spiritual home, a remote barn deep in the Texas countryside where their first rehearsals took place. The band listened to a lot of different types of music on the long drives out to the country but their favourites were the '60s and '70s Thai cassettes gleaned from the cult Monrakplengthai blog and compilations of southeast Asian pop, rock, and funk. This had a heavy impact on the direction of the band, the scales they used, and the inflection of the melodies; which coupled with the spaciousness of the Texan countryside culminated in Khruangbin forming their exotic, individual sound. 

“We feel like there is an ease that comes from being immersed in a space, away from the distractions of the city and everyday life. We make our music in a barn, in the Texas hill country, because it makes sense to us. Being there allows us to make music that comes naturally, and that’s what we wanted this album to be. We wanted to make a record that just let the music happen, and we hope that’s what you can hear.”
