Hollie Cook's sensational second album, Twice, originally released in 2014,
gets a 2025 repress on transparent green vinyl
Produced by Prince Fatty, Twice is a natural progression from Hollie's self-titled debut.
It's an absorbing blend of her trademark reggae and tropical pop sound, enriched with
the dubby undertones of Prince Fatty's production. Drawing on a broad range of
influences, there's sweeping string arrangements courtesy of the Macedonian Radio
Symphonic Orchestra and choir, Brazilian-influenced percussion, and disco touches.
At various points across the album, Hollie is joined by legendary musicians Dennis
Bovell, Omar, George Dekker, and Winston Francis.
Twice is packed with highlights, showcasing a sophisticated evolution in Hollie's
sound. The cinematic strings of the Macedonian Radio Symphonic Orchestra lace
through and lift tracks such as the rolling 'Desdemona', the rootsy 'Postman' with its
bumping bassline and Caribbean steel drum melodies, and the hazy, digi- dub-
influenced title track. Elsewhere, the dreamy yet melancholic 'Looking For Real Love'
sees Hollie's soulful vocals shine atop a blend of lovers rock and dub energy, whilst
'Superfast' has the air of a vintage reggae classic.
A unique and individual contemporary classic from reggae's orator of love, Hollie
Cook, ripe to be rediscovered by a new audience.
