A truly stunning, misty and hazy record. Built over spacious electronic soundscapes and dark synthesiser work, ‘Metallic Fuzz’ delves into the dark-wave archives to find a sound borrowed from early ‘2000 explorations, blended with atmospheric tones and evocative vocals. The result is a piece that’s reflective and ethereal, wrapping the listener into epic and anthemic energy, a great outcome for such an enlightened record.
Penned by Disco Dreams, American sound wizard with a knack for leftfield artistry, ‘Metallic Fuzz’ flourishes on an eclectic mixture of references. From the long, digital strings to the acid-house-inspired bassline, everything points towards a nuanced slice of musical research, one that’s bound to bring Disco Dreams to wider audiences.
Anticipating a longer album to be released in the near future (‘ToX_XiN’), ‘Metallic Fuzz’ successfully pushes the Cleveland creative into one of the most hypnotising projects we have discovered this year. Looking forward to hearing more!
