An artist that we have been following and taking an interest in over this year is Zachary Mason, a UK artist who has a distinctive style and approach to songwriting that has seen him create a wide range of different sounds and narratives across his recent releases.

His latest single ‘The Funky Martians’ is a track that showcases a more light-hearted and humorous side to his sound, serving as part of a wider narrative on his upcoming new EP 5…4…3…2…1… which will tell the story of mankind fleeing from a ruined earth for the red sand of Mars and a new colony. This track explores their initial contact with the Martians and the fortuitous circumstances that surrounded the encounter. Zachary’s distinctive sound feels as ambitious as it ever has on the new release, with a psychedelic and experimental soundscape doing a great job of fitting what is a bizarre and otherworldly set of circumstances, making for a listening experience that ties together really effectively.
