“Sirens” has a sense of being alive. There are sparkling synths woven through its shadowy basslines and restless percussion that drives the tension but never fully resolves it, bringing listeners further into its darkly luminous current. There’s a physical sense of movement at play, a push and pull that mirrors the song’s emotional undercurrent of desire, danger, and release, all crashing against each other like settlers beneath neon haze.
Co-written by Vulliamy, Lyness, and Davies, and produced by Davies from his East London studio, the track captures this strange chemistry, a dialogue between intimacy and isolation, cinematic strut versus subterranean saunter. It’s airy but urgent in its vocals, on a sonic level, it feels like a midnight trip through city lights played out of focus by rain. With “Sirens,” Oslo Twins continue to stake out their own territory in the dream-pop world, one that seems as much about mood as it does melody, as much about atmosphere as arrangement.
