Miki Berenyi Trio - Tripla (2025)
Tripla, the debut album by the Miki Berenyi Trio, feels like a graceful step forward from Miki Berenyi’s storied past. Its sound is bruised by time, yet it resists nostalgia, mapping a dream-pop tapestry that’s fresh and grounded. The sweeping opener “8th Deadly Sin” blends urgent environmental commentary with swirling synths and melancholy 12-string textures. On “Big I Am,” she shifts effortlessly into psychedelic disco territory, delivering a vocal performance that nods to the DFA era in spirit. Throughout the album, subtle electronic touches—programmed beats, marimba, trumpet, ambient swirls—expand the trio’s sonic palette beyond ethereal shoegaze. Closing track “Ubique” drifts into shimmering, symphonic territory, a fitting, celestial finale.
Critics broadly applaud Tripla’s thoughtful balance of introspection and wonder. It carries familiar sonic echoes, yet emerges with a freshly minted identity—circular and present, buoyed by the joy of creative renewal.
