Macadamian - “Rewired Mind”
Austrian artist Macadamian debuts on the blog with sublime indie rock track, “Rewired Mind.”
“Rewired Mind” is a slick take on the classic rock boogie, kicked along by a mid-tempo bass and drum groove that is meant to be felt as well as heard. The bass feels as deep as quick sand as it compellingly drives the low end with nimble, bombastic ease. The drums lean heavily into laid back funk crossed with krautrock. Hypnotically pounding the beat with vigour. Just from this groove you can tell Macadamian is here to rock and scratch that musical itch you didn’t even know you had.
The attention to detail has to be applauded with every element in the production being catchy as hell and precisely executed. Thick ass riffs, spidery arpeggios and staccato guitar stabs adorn the composition in all the right places. That’s all before we get to the feverish modulating synth flourishes and percussive ear candy.
Macadamian’s charcoal smoky voice sits comfortably in the rhythmic pockets of this track, fleshing out the sweet melodies with an effortless timeless quality. Taking on a conversational tone, it is a relaxed, simple and direct performance rich in tone and attitude.
On the lyrical meaning of the track Macadamian adds that “Rewired Mind” is “A song about obsession and intrusive thoughts that keep you up at night. They can start out small but get bigger the more you feed them until they consume your mind and your day-to-day life.”
Fiendishly catchy, swaggering and completely awesome, ““Rewired Mind” struts with unstoppable confidence. Connect with Macadamian: Spotify | Bandcamp | Instagram | TikTok
