Crowdfunding has become the way of the indie in the music industry, and Steve Young has mastered the art. Under mysterious, serendipitous circumstances, the new Hedflux album was completed the very day it achieved its crowdsource goal. Soul Science will get a September 27th release on Young's own Luminus label thanks to the support of his fans.
Today, we get a taste of the new album in the form of "Mystic Physics," a delicious dip into the dark and tempting world of psydub. While the initial impetus behind the Hedflux project was to blend the rhythms of breaks with the sounds of psytrance, Steve Young has much more range than that, which results in the pulsing snap of some choice progressions and tasty precision percussion programming.
