Inwards, the experimental-electronic maestro, has just released his latest digital single, "Moonscape," via Rainbow Bridge. Dropping on June 7th, this track kicks off a summer series from Inwards, aka Kristian Shelley, showcasing his distinctive blend of emotive and experimental sounds.
"Moonscape" is part of a duo of tracks inspired by the concepts of luck and misfortune. After a string of unfortunate events, Shelley began reflecting on the nature of luck, pondering its subjectivity and variability based on individual beliefs. This introspective journey birthed "Moonscape," a vivid and colorful tune created during a reflective holiday in the French Alps.
Inwards' creative process for this track involved an online exploration of luck-related folklore and snippets of wisdom, which he incorporated into the music. The result is a sonic collage that complements the abstract nature of "Moonscape," blending seamlessly with his signature style.
Inwards' career is marked by captivating melodies and innovative productions that mix found sounds, modular synths, and a variety of electronic and acoustic instruments. His unique approach has garnered acclaim from major publications like MOJO, which praised his 2020 LP "Bright Serpent," and widespread support from BBC 6 Music, Radio X, and other influential stations.
With "Moonscape," Inwards sets the stage for a prolific period of releases, promising fans plenty more to look forward to this year and beyond. This track not only highlights his creative versatility but also underscores his ability to turn personal experiences into compelling musical narratives.
Stay tuned for more from Inwards as he continues to explore and push the boundaries of experimental electronic music.
