Tai haf heb drigolyn are a musicband from wales. Obsessed with the elephant 6 collective, the band has members across the country. Putting tape front and centre, the band stumbles after the footsteps of R. Pollard and D. R Edwards.
Tai Haf Heb Drigolyn is a lo-fi Welsh language band based in Mid Wales. Formed originally by members Izak Zjalic and Simon Richards during a fateful night at Maes B, additional member William P Jones joined during the creation of their first album, Ein Albwm Cyntaf Ni. The album was recorded across three different home studios around Machynlleth, adopting recording techniques from the Elephant 6 Collective’s use of Tascam cassette portastudios, and fusing it with contemporary digital production.
The product is a hissy, melancholic soup of lo-fi Welsh language nostalgia, combining influences across indie, folk and hypnagogic pop. Following its release, the band begin a series of live shows, replicating the dense layers of their recorded material’s discrepant textures through a DIY approach consisting of guitars, ambience, electronics and noise.
