Album Of The Week: Two Shell 'Two Shell'

Mystery has kept a hold on many of history’s most lauded electronic musicians. Producers ranging from Burial to Aphex Twin to Vegyn have employed varying degrees of elusiveness to their advantage, cultivating hushed personas that stir rumors and generate theories among fans. More recently, in the style of a Zoomer-friendly Daft Punk, Two Shell have become internet favorites without anyone knowing their identities. The UK duo emerged on Peverelist’s no frills left-field label, Livity Sound, with the dubstep EP Access in 2019. After creating the imprint Mainframe Audio, Two Shell distanced themselves from the austerity of their avant-techno peers. They’ve embraced gleeful hooks, launched a cryptic website, sold $1,298 “boring rocks” on Bandcamp, and disguised themselves with cartoony costumes. These impish bits quickly led some of Two Shell’s influential forebears to take notice, and they began cropping up in mixes from Ben UFO, Jamie xx, and Four Tet.

“Elvis sorted through them, picking out several by title alone, then listening to them on the studio speaker… when he heard the second one, he instantly brightened. ‘Let me hear that again,’ he said. ‘Something I like about that one’..."

Otis Blackwell wrote over 1,000 R&B and rock ‘n’ roll hits, including some of Elvis's most iconic tracks, but "never wanted to meet him… We had something I felt that was going pretty good"
