   About yen

-Don't know who did this photo above, If you know please let us know... its awesome.

We would like people who listen and see us to make their own interpretation of what we are... But how does this sound? Pop poetry with a blend of lasers and glitter stone. With the heart clenching passion of Jeff Buckley and the splendor of Air stuck together by electro chemistry and a creature of rhythm. I suppose we are blending some soulful, psychedelic, funk vibes and wrapping it in a glitchy, dance, persona. One day we want to play our music in a lush magical forest, illuminated with shooting colours and lasers… yeah, but yeah!

“Lovely Indie Electronica... Yens music makes me feel like I’m out on the town nightclubbing with grace Jones.” CAZ TRAN - TRIPLE J

“Yen have surprised many a listener with their lively electronic grooves and smart lyrics ... With Dancefloor appeal and vibrant energy they are well positioned to cause a storm....” THE LOFT

“Although Yen weren’t on the gig guide, we heard constant gossip about their spectacular performances. The Chai Tent had a handful of supporters egging on passers by to come and experience Yen. The four-man instrumental jazz funk piece radiated power and passion. Sure enough, the Chai Tent couldn’t fit anymore to dance to Yen’s magic by the time "encore" was repeatedly being called…” ALICE PAMMENT - CHANNEL V.


Please have a listen to CLOSER TO LOVE.
Yen are currently working on music they would like to record on a mango farm later this year x-) ..

i personally (tim) have briefly met (shaken hands with) mr. clever and addictive singing beard man. but yes, it would be nice to do it properly sometime. i will definitely come back with the other guys to see you play again. thanks! the recordings are all a bit sketchy (areoplanes vocals was recording with a computer headset!), we would love to do some really great ones sometime soon. if you don't mind me asking, how did you lovely fellows record your sounds? all the best! timothy and fellow fire breathers.
