Team Oktopus If we had to listen only to one album for one year in a row this album would be it. Unbelievable beautiful and deeply touching. Favorite track: man kunto maula.

about

Dark post-pop meets mystic muse, Arooj Aftab's Bird Under Water undulates and scintillates. A masterful expression of lyrical and acoustic soul, tripped out through analog voltage and experimental digital filters.
