Loi Loi is electronic synth-pop duo of Kristie (vocals, keyboards, synthesizers), and Johnny (Electribes, backing vocals). The real-life siblings started creating music as Loi Loi four years ago in China, where Kristie paired Mandarin compositions with radical experimental sounds. Loi Loi continued to develop in Spain, mixing original Spanish lyrics with an eclectic background of rock and roll, R&B, electronic, and soul influences. Loi Loi embraces an economical setup but maximizes on a suite of atmospheric effects, original samples, and a multi-tiered song structure.
Loi Loi’s first Blight. Records single release is “1985”, a byte-by-byte whimsical reckoning of “cigarettes and promises, popsicles and mortgages”. The song shapes Commodore 64 electronic waves into a kaleidoscopic pattern, widening into the landscape of the year that was 1985. In perfect harmony with the BLIGHT label, “1985” serves up flecks of acrimony in the frolick.
