London-based songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Helena Gee has shared another stunning piece of ambient dream-pop under her Vanishing Animals moniker. 'Long, Long Time' is the follow up to Gee's confident synth-driven debut 'Goddess', which left us speechless back in May. Opening with an ominous synth swell, 'Long, Long Time' is an intentional slow-burner, which gradually introduces its delicate atmospheric elements from the gently ticking electronic hi-hats to the delicately palm-muted guitar parts. Gee's silky smooth vocals are the star of the show for the first 3 minutes before the track bursts into life with a hypnotic ascending guitar line that soars above a wash of abstract synthesizers and eerily beautiful backing vocals. We're hoping we won't have to wait such a long time for the next one. (Couldn't resist). -HLMX
