Our Take
Our Take
The Helioentrics have once again entered the musical stratosphere with their latest offering, "A World of Masks." This album is a thrilling sonic journey that blends genres and defies expectations with its unique blend of jazz, funk, and psychedelic influences.
From the moment the needle drops on the hypnotic opener, "Made of the Sun," listeners are drawn into a world of ethereal soundscapes and mind-bending melodies. The band's innovative use of instrumentation, including brass, woodwinds, and strings, creates a rich tapestry of sound that envelops the listener in a whirlwind of sonic delight.
Tracks like "The Signal Maker" and "Noake" showcase the Helioentrics' talent for crafting intricate, layered compositions that are both complex and accessible. The interplay between the musicians is seamless, with each member contributing their own unique flair to the overall sound.
But it's not all serious musical wizardry on "A World of Masks." The Helioentrics have injected a healthy dose of playfulness and humour into the mix, with tracks like "The Uncertainty Principle" and "The Dance of the Dogon" providing a welcome lightness amidst the album's more introspective moments.
In conclusion, "A World of Masks" is a stunning achievement from a band at the height of their powers. The Helioentrics have once again proven themselves to be true musical innovators, pushing boundaries and defying conventions with their genre-defying sound. Put on your favourite mask, sit back, and let the music transport you to a world where anything is possible.
