Stevenson delivers what may be his best single to date with ‘Maelstrom”. 

A ghostly onslaught of melodic timbres reverberating within a maelstrom of ethereal vocalic layers; interspaced with off-beat percussive stabs that echo the minor key anguish which has become a signature of Stevenson’s catalogue to date.

The dilettante may hear only the melodious chaos while the minimalist fan will welcome the intricate sound design which weaves his stylised emotional wrecking ball into shards of sonic debris.

Maelstrom

we never met, but i remember you
we never touched, but it's your skin i'm feeling
i never saw you, but i can't erase you
we never fell, but i'm still bleeding

just another name, just another word
that was never said, that was never heard
just another name, just another word

with everything that you erased
standing in an empty space
i'm vanishing away

we never met, but i remember you
we never touched, but it's your skin i'm feeling
i never saw you, but i can't erase you
we never fell, but i'm still bleeding

just another voice, just another sound
that was never loud enough to be found
just another voice, lost among the crowd

with everything that you erased
standing in an empty space
i'm vanishing away

We never met

British producer Bon-Psy is back again with another grandiose production off the back of ‘Onyx’.

‘Ikigai’ (the Japanese concept related to finding one’s purpose), is a leap into uncharted territory in the Experimental Electronic scene, and once again an artist defining piece nailing down the staples of the Bon-Psy sound.

A sprawling exploration of the depths of Electronica, ‘Ikigai’ is mosaic in nature, presenting a driving groove, majestic vocal lines and goose bump inducing progressions that are nothing short of a spectacle.

With this new single, the young artist takes strides into discovering his capabilities as a musician, but also, identifying his purpose as a human being.

‘Sleepy Eyes’ is a message to the oblivious person you are pining for. It’s that unsure feeling of wondering if you should be together, of not knowing if that person feels it too, of wanting them to see what you see. Maybe you’re chasing the same things, maybe you’re not, but you definitely want to look into those sleepy eyes and find out.

Sleepy Eyes

Based in Brisbane, Scott Stevenson's production blurs the lines between beautiful and visceral. Warm atmospheric soundscapes laced with eerie shimmering synth, through to complex darkly moody compositions are his chosen form of communication – his articulate creations, and soulful rhythms are designed to transport you from your current state of mind. 
With recent releases on Scott's own Imprint, Shsoo Records – his broad electronica based sounds are deep, surprising and delightfully unique. His attention to detail and intelligent sound design satisfies even the most experienced audiophiles.
