Downtempo Psychedelia Awaits, Beneath The Leylandii by Badwizad

Dive into the lush sonic exploration of Beneath The Leylandii, the debut album from Badwizad, out this year on his own imprint - Badwizad Records. This nine-tracker presents a journey that merges downtempo psychedelic electronica with earthy grooves, weaving hypnotic percussion, funky guitar licks, and various other influences into a whole that is more than the sum of the parts. Drawing inspiration from iconic works like Dark Side of the Moon and Plastic Beach, as well as contemporary pioneers Bonobo and Bicep, Badwizad crafts a sound that’s as timeless as it is transportive.

The album takes listeners on a shapeshifting voyage, from the outback allure of "Kundalini" to the funky, heady vibes of "Rah La Calima (It's A Trip)." "Yunger Dryas" and "El Serpentino" set a tone more bedded in rhythmic loops, with their intricate arrangements, while tracks like "Simulata" and "Telepathic Elephants" push minimized boundaries with experimental textures and left back vibes. The entire record hums with a mystical, earth-inspired energy that makes it feel equally at home in a candlelit den or an open-air festival.

Beneath The Leylandii delivers a mind-expanding blend of soundscapes and irresistible grooves. Badwizad invites you to step into their world—press play, let go, and drift beneath the trees.
