Twin Oaks - See You When I See You (2019)

Digging deep between the realms of deconstruction and self-realization, Los Angeles-based band Twin Oaks (fronted by songwriter and vocalist Lauren Brown and producer/instrumentalist Aaron Domingo) put forth their sophomore release 'See You When I See You' with no limitations. Following the band's shoegaze-tinged 2017 'Collapse EP' and patient intimacy of 2018 'Living Rooms EP', Brown continues to present deeply personal observations on isolation, societal pressure, death, and failed expectations. The emotional depths are elevated (this time) by the band's ability to navigate between haunting soundscape, driven dynamics, and quiet contemplation. 'See You When I See You' is a process of diving into the most unsettling moments of life in order to find a better sense of self.

The writing spanned throughout the end of 2017 into 2018 and included the collaborations of drummer/percussionist Marilyn Beltran and bassist Aroldo Rios to bring the songs to full completion. Keeping to their DIY roots, Twin Oaks self-recorded and produced the album in October 2018 between Brass Plate Records and Domingo's home studio in Southern California.
