Josh Fudge Dreams in “TECHNICOLOR”

Dream pop aficionado, Josh Fudge, shows off effortless grace and coolness in the new synth-soaked single “TECHNICOLOR” which is also the title track off his debut album. You can almost see the swirling kaleidoscope of color with the opening sample as it pulls you through a tunnel of synthesized sound.

On the other end of that tunnel opens a world of fantastic vibrance and electronic beats. “It feels like time flies by every time I close my eyes” Fudge sings before the chorus. As he begins to “dream in technicolor”, we dive into another musical break where big neon laser synth dance around with a flick of the wrist.

Using a softer approach with catchy pop hooks, Josh Fudge dives right into a psychedelic pool of 80’s pop throwback that feels kin to the funky sounds of Chromeo or Cherub. The whole composition melds perfectly in a nice slow and sensual jam that revels in the joy of synesthesia – where sound and color collide in fantastic effect.

“TECHNICOLOR”, along with Josh Fudge’s debut album of the same name, are both available on major streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music. Find this and more excellent music on the Alchemical Records Multigenre Mixture Playlist on Spotify.

Foghat’s Roger Earl Refuses to Slow His Ride

By this point in his life, Foghat founding drummer Roger Earl has visited quite a few doctors. But what may be surprising is that the percussionist, 77, is quick to point out that many of the medical professionals who have worked on him also enjoy rocking out.

“Nearly all the doctors and surgeons I know, they all play something: trumpet, sax, violin, guitar,” Earl said recently. “There’s not too many drummers that are surgeons, there’s probably a good reason for that!”

Earl half-jokingly invites his surgeon-rockers to join him and the other members of Foghat onstage at the Fillmore in Silver Spring March 9, where they will be headlining the Rock and Roll for Children Foundation benefit for the Children’s Inn at NIH. Earl, the only original member of Foghat still in the band, will be banging the skins behind guitarist Bryan Bassett and other members Scott Holt and Rodney O’Quinn. “Slow Ride,” the band’s 1975 megahit, is all but assured to be on the setlist, along with tunes from Foghat’s most recent record, “Sonic Mojo.”
