The Colombian artist of British origin, Daniel Jones, has returned to Colombia and has taken back the reins of his band. Two-Way Analog. This group, which had gained notoriety in specialized media through its two albums, Mystery, adventure, and romance y Music and songs for the road, disappeared from the map for a few years, while Jones took some time to resolve his doubts in the United Kingdom. His return brings with it new songs and the preparation of a third album, the first single of which is called Caught in the middle, of which they present a videographic work.
The song, a theme with a melancholic blush, It could perfectly fit into the soundtracks of television series such as Twin Peaks o True Detective, where the weight of the road is felt on the highway, the need to isolate themselves from the world and tell new stories and that uncontrollable longing for solitude which ironically spreads to the masses when they encounter their fellow human beings in everyday life. Sung with astonishing simplicity, Caught in the middle It is a composition where tranquility and nostalgia reside. and Jones' mature attitude is evident in its construction.
The video, despite using figures already seen in several films by directors such as Jim Jarmusch and Quentin Tarantino, It unfolds in a slow, deliberate manner and makes good use of the seduction that the protagonists perform in front of the camera. It's not an unforgettable clip, But the song makes it entertaining. and it completes that mysterious atmosphere that the director surely tried to achieve.
We're happy about the return of Two Way Analog and we are excited about the possibility of seeing him again on Colombian stages. Their return makes us think that the music scene on this side of the world has one more reason to remain entertaining. and have a greater number of elements to continue paying attention to what is happening around here.
