Info:

One Plus One/indecisive Is The 7inch Release From The Debut Ep By Melbourne Band The Do Yo Thangs A Collection Of Sensual Slow Jams And Bumping Future Soul Dominated By Rich, Four-voice Harmonies. One Plus One Is Equal Parts Performance And Programming, Drawing From A Broad Palette Of Live Instruments And Electronic Sounds. At The Front, Hugh And Audrey Alternate Lead Vocal Duties, Supported By Harmony Singers Maddie Otto And Tiaryn Griggs. Backing Them, The Guitar Sound Is Classic Soul But The Plethora Of Synthesizers And 808 Kick Drums Is Definitely Not, Nodding Equally To Vangelis Or Hiatus Kaiyote. The More You Listen, The More Intricacy Is Discovered. The Writing Uses Jazz Elements And Odd Rhythmic Devices, But It S All Tucked Away - Theres Nothing That Intrudes Into The Foreground Or Interferes With The Song S Abilities To Speak To An Audience
