NOW ZONIN'

posted July 6th, 2023

What if a sophisticated composer had scored a 70’s prison-break flick where the escape never happens, and instead just slowly amplifies the internal turmoil and existential dread of everyday life, Morricone style? No need to speculate: Emil Amos' latest single, "Zone Black", does just that! The melancholy moog flute/synth enabled with conservatory-style guitars and an elastic bounce hybridizes disparate moods, flexing into a new kind of library music.

Utilizing elements from classic television and film soundtracks of the 20th century and informed by modern hip hop production, Zone Black expertly blends previously tread waters with a keen and refreshing ear. Listen to the title track and grab your LP on August 4th!
