Now on Red Tent Records: Sound Strider Explores the Occult and Magic on OCCULT ELECTRIC
Available now on Red Tent Records, the latest EP from French electronic outfit Sound Strider is a musical exploration of the occult and chaos magic, set to unique electro tunes influenced by everything from Aphex Twin to Morcheeba and beyond. A blend of trip hop, EDM, and psychedelic sounds, the tunes are trippy and experimental while retaining a strong melodic bent.
While the closing track, “Embracing Chaos”, has a dancey vibe with a world music influence, “Plague of Wizards” is decidedly more downbeat. The result is an EP that will appeal to a variety of music fans, with distinctly different tracks that still work as one unified piece.

Justin has been running websites since his first Geocities site in 1994, but only did he ever start covering anything of substance years later. After he stopped regularly running local concerts in Northern NJ and the greater Philly area, he knew he needed to step up his writing game if he expected to continue to get free music to listen to. He writes regularly here and at Cinapse, as well as contributing to a few other sites on occasion. He likes music, film, the Philadelphia Eagles, the 76ers, talking about Criminal Justice, reading Intelligence Report, and his family... not in that order. His beautiful wife is far more talented than he is and his kids far more adorable... and crazy.
