Patrick Galactic is like a shadowed spaceship hovering the earth. With yellow spotlights inspecting animal, vegetable and mineral, Galactic tirelessly works to understand the world - indeed, the worlds - around him with each passing moment. The Seattle-based musician’s latest EP, No Future to Fear, is emblematic of this constant, harried search for meaning. It begins with fear and ends, quicker than one would hope, in the relief that every living thing shares.
 
With a rich and full voice pulled tight with trepidation, Galactic sings on No Future To Fear about time, abandonment and demise. But it is all with a sense of knowing that everything shares the same blanketed fate that the songwriter explores and sifts through these dramatic themes - for the only way to see yourself is to look in the mirror and squint a little bit to endure. 
 
Galactic has earned praise for his work from Artist Home, Nada Mucho, The Sun Break and The Big Takeover. His is a wide audience ranging from pop fans to rock, electronic and the psychedelic. In his work, he fuses micro aspects of each to form his formidable and powerful sonics. Think: Kurt Vile meets RJD2. And while the record may startle and surprise, it culminates with a kind thought: there is no future to fear if we all share the same conclusion.
