injijo - AURA
NOW AVAILABLE.
NEW RESTOCK SHIPPING *** 31ST JANUARY 2025 ***.
LIMITED TO 40 COPIES OF “TOKYO BLUE “ COLOUR.
☉
injijo’s AURA is a bold and immersive exploration of authenticity and imperfection, crafted over the past two years. While their previous works have been rooted in ambient and lo-fi aesthetics, AURA marks a shift towards a genre-defying blend of modern R&B, soulhop, and experimental electronica, pushing injijo’s fascination with texture and tone to new creative heights.
Embracing a philosophical tone, injijo’s inspiration for the album comes from Walter Benjamin’s concept of the “aura” — the uniqueness of a handmade object, tied to a time and place. This idea recurs throughout the album, weaving a narrative of imperfection and authenticity that resonates in music and but also in their personal life. This reflective journey is also echoed in the album’s artwork, which pays homage to injijo’s cinematic influences of Donnie Darko, Lost In Translation and Lost Highway, bridging the gap between past inspiration and future possibility.
Musically, AURA stands out as a seamless fusion of analog warmth and modern production. injijo’s lo-fi roots shine through with layers of tape hiss and saturated textures, while elements of gospel-tinged vocals and intricate drum patterns reflect his expanding palette. This interplay between organic and digital sonics adds a layered dimension to the album, underscoring injijo’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of contemporary music.
Incorporating vocal snippets from iconic TV shows and films, including Twin Peaks, Dexter, Skins, Ex-Machina, Fire Walk With Me, and The Matrix, AURA captures injijo’s diverse inspirations and cinematic sensibilities. The result is an album that invites listeners to embrace the beauty in imperfection, offering a fluid listening experience that resonates on both emotional and conceptual levels.
