Hey! Do you like new music and, not just new music, but slightly difficult music that’s fun? Well, you should check outy Rob Mazurek’s Exploding Star Orchestra newbie, ‘Future Shaman’.

Apply here if you like wonky jazz and post-rock. It’s discordant, good stuff.

Mazurek is a composer/trumpeter and the Exploding Star Orchestra features Damon Locks on vox and Jeff Parker on guitar, and pals), although there’s not much in the way of vocals on this new one. There’ll be a new LP called ‘Lightning Dreamer’ out in March too, so in the meantime, get stuck into this track which is in advance of eight minutes and is what you might call a musical odyssey.

Not for the weak-willed this. It’s great though.
