Versatile Austin musician known for his genre-bending style, Dax Martinez-Vargas, releases an enigmatic sonic exploration to a realm beyond with his latest single, "Wild Forces." Produced by Paul Hammer (Savoir Adore), David Perlick-Molinari (French Horn Rebellion), and Adam Gibbs, the single continues Dax's genre-defying journey, mirroring his eclectic music catalog.

"Wild Forces" is a mystical summer tune forged in the heat of this record-breaking summer, echoing through an auditory desert depicted by its single art cover. Its central theme explores the idea of competing forces shaping and warping our lives. Dax’s lyrics journey from a dream realm populated by an elusive feminine entity to the dire urgency of a voiceless individual's struggle to communicate before their demise.

Despite its fun beat, the track concludes with a sobering portrayal of humanity's relentless chase of materialism and hierarchy, akin to a warped hamster wheel. This compelling narrative, underscored by rich musicality, offers an unforgettable auditory adventure.
