Following last month’s cosmic-jazz adventure ‘Mind Palace’, (premiered on The Most Radicalist), Brighton’sWax Machine have shared ‘Time’,the final single from their forthcoming third EP.
Featuring everything from intricate flute work to face-melting guitar solos and eerily gentle vocals, ‘Time’is another highly experimental cut that undulates in pitch and speed throughout before reaching its dizzying climax. Serving as a musical meditation about the shift from thinking to doing, band leader Lauro explained:
“The EP is conceptually tied to the idea of expression and introspection. It’s a reminder for myself (or anyone else) to take the time to process things and express creatively rather than falling into mindless habits.“
Coming out on the 8th of November via Time Spun Records, Mind Palaceis a mystical exploration of genre that encompasses a breadth of influences ranging from modern-psych legends King Gizzardand the Lizard Wizard to 60s pioneers Alice Coltrane and Sun Ra. Self-produced by Lauro, Wax Machine’s intoxicating sense of playful creativity is evident throughout Mind Palace combining long dynamic jams and exotic instrumentation with an unshakeable feeling of freedom.
