“Vemod is a Swedish word that has no translation into English. The closest literal translation would be bitter-sweetness.”– TWO LEGS

After starting off his musical life in various Indie bands, Two Legs is now well into his Electronic music (sort of) career. Two Legs’ new EP Vemod still however, holds some indie features by working with acoustic artists such as Katie and I, on Quicksand, where soulful vocals ride smoothly over a contrasting beat.

This album has coincided with a musical and circumstantial change in Two Legs’ career. Whilst making the transition from DJing to playing live, he has also finished university and shows deliberation of the transition into post-university life.

Despite the former English and Philosophy student insisting that his self-proclamation as a ‘dream-weaver’ is purely tongue-in-cheek, the music on his EP begs to differ. Throughout Vemod, Two Legs weaves wondrous reveries of nostalgia, in a lighter and more ambient way than his last emotionally dark and murky dominated EP Like Birds. Like Birds was the depth of winter, and Vemod is starting to see summer.

This EP shows a vast depth of emotion, presented in an utterly beautiful, but dissonant, way. There’s a deep un-restfulness within Two Legs’ music that never gets truly resolved.

Two Legs has delivered another simplistic masterpiece that continues his own distinctive sound. We are left here in a state of bitter-sweetness, melancholy and nostalgic longing: a state of Vemod. We are utterly immersed in this alternate universe he has welcomed us into. Where will he take you?

Vemod is available now via Limbs.
