Spell 31

"There's such a timeless quality about the Ibeyi's' music that it can be easy to forget that its creators aren't yet thirty. The Diaz sisters' approach is undeniably modern, built around the clean notes of R&B and hip-hop, but these are two sisters singing in harmony about mythology and ancestry, and in a time of dejection or just straight nihilism, their music arrives each time like a cleansing wind".

"Contrary to its arrival almost five years after Ash, its brief duration of 26 minutes, and the shorter and spacier qualities of its songs, Spell 31 bears absolutely no indication that Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Diaz are short on inspiration or have less to say with their third album. Still working closely with XL label boss and producer Richard Russell, the sisters continue to make a serene and highly appealing kind of pop music informed by their Afro-Cuban heritage".

"Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Díaz's rhythm-forward third album is a syncretic celebration of sounds and traditions that shimmers with color and joy".
