Ardyn, a dark-pop twosome formed of Gloucestershire twins Rob and Katy Pearson, have shared "Universe" from their upcoming EP of a similar name.
The duo fuse Rob's brooding guitar strums with the cautious croon of Katy, gradually piling more and more layers until the final minute of the track is a sinewy, climactic brew of tangled melodies and messy textures.
National Anthem will release Ardyn's four-track EP The Universe on limited edition 7" on 13 November. It's produced with Rodaidh McDonald (The xx, King Krule, Sampha).
