Combining a rumbling, metallic percussive undercurrent with passionate vocals and mysterious lyrics, Brooklyn electronic duo The Mast‘s lastest release "Nuclear Dragon" is both hypnotic and inviting. In this track – available as a free download on their bandcamp – their exotic psychedelic journey weaves through a land of turtle bays, grazing elephants and dragons, where dreams made of bronze and stone are frozen under the sun (but still alive within). Propulsive tribal patterns are woven within dramatic vocal placement that rise in cascading swells as this story unfolds. The Mast will be appearing at Glasslands on January 29. – Dave Cromwell
