Wand

Sliding between the bodies in the street, cutting across the contrails that bisect our sky, Wand find melody and the anxiety beats as they hum the soundtrack for a new gravitational center. Seeking connections against the plan of niche interest and anonymity, Vertigo is the sound of slippage, rocks of contradiction (in soft focus); feet lost, regained, lost again, a multi-chromatic swaying, more automatic, associative, directed, in time.

Plus, in the name of the ever-expanding universe (and the much-needed dream-extension app!), three remixes – from Beat Detectives, Dean Spunt and Dead Rider – for good measure. Not sure where you’re at? Check in with the “Help Desk”.

Wand are back, with music colored weird orange and rouged to Plum.
