Dos-Ovni is a dark ambient post rock duo from Ahuriri Napier, Aotearoa New Zealand, which has been putting together a haunting, immersive sound since 2021. Members Liv and Dee, each with over two decades of experience in various bands, bring a minimalist approach to songwriting, combing dark finishes, atmospheric passages, and reverb-laden vocals which linger in open spaces.
Collaborating since 2023 with producer and engineer Nick Blow of Sister Lung, Dos-Ovni has managed to create a strikingly full sound for a two-piece band, as they are currently recording their debut album.
Their introspective sound draws comparisons to artists like Chelsea Wolfe, Low, Darkher, and King Woman, blending influences from these bands into a distinct sonic identity. Their new track Sinners is a beautiful standout, blending esoteric themes with profound emotional depth. The song explores purgatory and the unsettling notion of fate being decided by an external force, brought to life in a slow-burn style which captivates, haunts and cannot be missed.
