Josh Teed has embarked on a bold new chapter in his musical journey with the release of The Prologue, his debut EP on Kannibalen Records. As the EP title suggests, it’s the opening act of a sprawling fictional universe, meticulously crafted by Teed, drawing inspiration from his lifelong passion for fantasy fiction and historical literature. The Prologue sets the stage for a grand narrative that will unfold throughout the year with subsequent releases, each piece expanding the rich tapestry of this immersive world, and will have a follow up EP. If you’re a fan of Black Tiger Sex Machine lore building behind their music, you’ll love this!
This release marks a significant milestone in Teed’s evolution as an artist. Over the past five years, his sound has undergone a bigtransformation, from albums like The Journey East and Recurring Dreams to his more recent work, ‘Taking It All In.’ The Prologue represents culminates years of experience, seamlessly blending his classical and Celtic music background, his mastery of sound design, and his innate storytelling abilities.
‘A Journey Begins‘ gently ushers listeners into this world with a delicate string intro, interwoven with piano, ethereal vocal samples, and subtle percussion. The track’s symphonic soundscape gradually builds, creating an atmosphere of anticipation. The journey takes a darker turn with ‘Animus,’ a collaboration with Abstrakt Sonance. This track delves into deeper bass frequencies while retaining the orchestral essence established in the opening track. The EP culminates in ‘The Fray,‘ a sonic representation of an epic battle. Here, ominous orchestration clashes with Teed’s signature left-field bass beats, creating a powerful and dramatic finale.
The Prologue is just the beginning. Teed’s vision extends far beyond this initial release, promising a year of sonic expansions that will delve deeper into the lore and introduce us to the central characters of his narrative as he continues to build out this world. Beyond the release, Josh Teed is making waves with a series of curated events showcasing some of his favorite artists, including Luzcid, Wraz, Great Dane, Common Creation, and many more. He’s also hitting the road, joining Apashe on his Antagonist 2.0 tour, featuring orchestral elements, and will be supporting Daily Bread on the Flash Flood Tour in March and April.
