With « Since », Missing Waves—the duo of Marie-Catherine Mossé and Daniel Palomo Vinuesa—open a new chapter in their sonic exploration. “Since”: a simple word, yet one that carries the memory of what we are, and of what changes. Following their 2018 release « Post Crash », the duo continues to navigate the fragile territory between the human and the machine. Electronics and acoustic gestures intertwine in a music that remains intimate while subtly experimental.
Somewhere along a lineage stretching from David Bowie’s Eno-era explorations to Kate Bush, and from Portishead to today’s evolving electronica scene, « Since » unfolds a form of free-spirited pop—poetic, spontaneous, and quietly adventurous—where every sound seems to carry a trace of memory. The studio serves as their shared laboratory, yet Missing Waves remains, at heart, a duo of musicians. Their use of voice, wind instruments and piano brings an organic presence that anchors the electronic textures.
Their music reflects an eclectic path where minimalism meets psychedelia, reggae-dub resonates with world music, and echoes of jazz and progressive rock surface along the way. With « Since », Missing Waves deliver an album that is both distinctive and exploratory—music suspended between memory and anticipation, between yesterday and tomorrow.
