California-based producer Martin Glass returns with ‘The Interstellar Music of Martin Glass‘, his fourth album on London-based Kit Records.
Martin Glass presents twelve tracks fit for the cosmic frontier, tales spun from high-rise reflections of the American dream, now catapulted into deeper orbits. Here, Glass interweaves cinematic downtempo, neo-classical, boogie and full-bodied ambient music into a slow-cooked fusion of spectral longing, dreamy yet oddly tactile, like a transmission from an old VHS tape.
Our pick, ‘Interstellar Disco’, is a free fall into zero gravity. Glass’ use of intricate boogie drum programming morphs the groove into a potent dancefloor séance. Bass sways like distant satellites, arpeggios stretch and crackle like a mirage, while shimmering synths and spectral chants spiral outwards, calling to something ancestral, something beautifully broken at the centre of the universe.
‘The Interstellar Music of Martin Glass’ is out now via Kit Records. Order a copy from Bandcamp.
