LA duo Vindata are back with a new (and free!) release that’s absolutely bonkers. ‘Arrival’ is an alien invasion on a stellar summer’s day.

“Witches try to curse me with they voodoo,” the hypnotizing vocal loop of Animals In The Room and MVSQs ‘Voodoo’ perfectly encapsulates the feeling of the track. It’s an exploration of the dark arts that’s magical and scary. The track is possessed with violent synths, abusive bass and pounding percussion.
