Arooj Aftab - Love In Exile 2LP

Double vinyl LP pressing. Love In Exile asks you to step inside it's sense of time, to stretch out alongside these delightful & unhurriedly unfolding songs. Profound impact is achieved with minimal instrumentation: Iyer on pianos & electronics, Ismaily on bass & Moog synth & Aftab's exquisite Urdu vocals. Subtle musical interrelationships build into moments of deeply felt drama. Shimmering keyboard melodies & stirring vocals, earthy basslines, & hypnotic drones: together they create an album of stunning gravitas & beauty.
