Leyya – Half Asleep

A striking sentence, blinking into its own movement. With their third studio album Half Asleep the internationally celebrated duo, consisting of Sophie Lindinger and Marco Kleebauer, shares how healing it can be to re-arrive at oneself. 

Leyya give us a first glance with their first single of the same name: the experimental indie track Half Asleep is a small homage to the history of Drum N Bass – Leyya lovingly recorded and accelerated the drum loop themselves, rather than simply using a programmed beat sample from an online library. The song is as soft as it is hard, combining a warm, analog indie aesthetic with experimental and digital electronic sounds.
