MAL NOT BAD DODGEBALL
LA-based musician, producer and visual artist Mal Not Bad has dropped their new single, ‘Dodgeball’. Their visionary sound is almost ambient at its core, with a pulse-based sonic world driven by a four-to-the-floor bass drum underpinning explorative examinations of folk instruments and melodies. Deep, dense reverb allows for a variety of contrasting sounds to effortlessly blend and collide, forming a bed for their airy lead vocal that sounds subtle and simple, but would’ve required an impressive knowledge of production to craft in the first place. Keep an eye out for more from Mal Not Bad in 2024. -Dan Peeke
