Choose Your Own Adventure

Vinyl LP pressing. 2016 release. Oblique pop ensemble Vanishing Twin formed in 2015 over a love of unusual instruments, freaky records and the irresistible seduction of a good groove. Founder Orlando, after releasing a string of conceptual cassettes on her own RAM label, put a band together and named it for her other self, a twin absorbed and internalized in utero when they were both still a cluster of cells. She is joined by drummer Valentina Magaletti (Tomaga, Shit and Shine, Raime, Neon Neon), bassist Susumu Mukai (A.K.A. primitive electronic producer Zongamin), library music head Phil M.F.U. (Man From Uranus) on strange sounds, and film-maker and visual artist Elliott Arndt on flute and percussion.
