Voice of San DiegoA big part of writing music is figuring out exactly what to play. But what’s perhaps just as important is deciding what not to play.
The blissfully vibed out dream pop group In Mazes has that give and take down to a science. The band carefully manicures the negative space, leaving plenty of room to frame its lead singer’s sublimely delicate vocals. “Absence is a Crater,” is a perfect example of the band’s ability to strike that balance. A delicate wash of keys, small guitar and keyboard flourishes and a gentle bass drive forward the hypnotic tune.
This is confident, mature and pretty damn stunning stuff. Don’t sleep on it!
