Since seeping out from the Lisbon underground in 2012 with some clandestine internet musics and supplemented by a debut LP - �Love� which garnered universal admiration and confusion -Yong Yong have since relocated and reconvened at the other end of Europe.

The duo have re-assessed their sound, experimenting with near-dancefloor-bothering beat making, warped samples on degrading loops and a much deeper exploration of the frayed atmospherics that they only hinted at previously. On Greatest It�s Yong Yong have further embraced the ethical rectitude of the mistake, further opened the crack in the mirror that popular culture perpetually presents to the consumer. Making a virtue of their limitations, Greatest It�s was recorded on decaying machinery and obsolete software but with an enhanced sense of electronic dynamics than previous work: still glorifying in the skewed and broken, but now with new depths and emotional response. Tracks like Sesamstrrat seem to pour radioactive fog into a R�n�B pop hit, resulting in a mutated form of unique electronic pop music, Macu Lu-Lu present a broken beat that dredges the outer limits of a mid-90s Warp experimentation and the epic Oeiras drags a wobbly beat through the melancholic wringer.

Currently residing in the culturally-rich, former industrial superpower of Glasgow, Yong Yong�s excavations of the recent past point ever more pertinently to music of the future. A resolutely imperfect future built on erring, yet
beautiful foundations.
