Bicep - Lyk Lyk

Review by Jared Nealon

Bicep's latest album, Lyk Lyk, has been receiving rave reviews from critics and fans alike. The Belfast-born duo, Andrew Ferguson and Matthew McBriar, have been making waves in the electronic music scene for several years now, and their latest offering does not disappoint.

Lyk Lyk is a 10-track album that showcases Bicep's signature sound of nostalgic, euphoric house and techno. The album opens with the pulsating beats of "Atlas," which sets the tone for the rest of the record. The duo's love for the '90s rave scene is evident throughout the album, with tracks like "Apricots" and "X" featuring euphoric synths and breakbeats that would make any rave-goer's heart race.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Saku," featuring Japanese artist Clara La San. The track is a beautiful blend of La San's soulful vocals and Bicep's intricate production. The duo also showcases their versatility with tracks like "Siena" and "Fir," which are more subdued and atmospheric, providing a much-needed breather in the middle of the album.
