Altered Zones

Completely out of nowhere, Zak Mering dropped a bomb in my inbox. Between his work in Greatest Hits, Raw Thrills, and everything else under his Gunk TV umbrella, I’m pretty used to this dude impressing me with whatever he sends my way, but the recent collab with Tallahassee producer Dream Love is some of the more unique work I’ve heard from the Brooklyn-via-LA transplant. Dream Love's blown-out synth acrobatics with Mering's deliciously detuned vocals on the warbly “Love Juice” teeter between a lost b-side from cult Italo disco producer John Forde and the background music of seminal '80s arcade racing game Outrun. Full of twists, turns, and handclaps, this is one jam you’ll have a hard time driving away from. --Ric Leichtung, Altered Zones
