Since dropping their self-titled debut in 2012, Freak Heat Waves have been an ever-evolving musical force, delivering a steady output that defies easy categorization. Comprising Steve Lind and Thomas Di Ninno, the duo delivered their most alluring output to date with their latest LP, 2023's Mondo Tempo. Released via Vancouver's Mood Hut label and landing on numerous best of lists, this fifth album is a tasteful infusion of dancehall grooves, ambient textures, trance mantras and midi smoothness -- a heady cocktail that seamlessly blends elements of post-punk, psych, dub, ambient, house, and techno. Once again, the Freaks have reaffirmed their reputation as one of the most unpredictable and exciting acts around.
