Deadbeat Beat: Tree, Grass & Stone 7″

The latest single from Detroit rough riders Deadbeat Beat alludes to Swedish psych legends Träd, Gräs Och Stenar. As natural-sounding as its title, the song is a steady, upbeat trip, starting out with a bit of a sunshine chorus and verse before dissolving into spacey synth effects. In the spirit of numerous James Brown and P-Funk singles, the jam continues on the second side, rematerializing and fading in on a shredding astral-exploration guitar solo. Equal parts pop and psych, the record makes equal room for hooks and blissful zone-outs. Digitally available on Bandcamp.
