Jude Gwynaire includes a wide array of influences on the intense aural journey of “Singing Rock Lake”. Channeling the plethora of styles reminiscent of the Future Sound of London’s expansive, all-consuming approach, everything about the album teems with life. Genre-jumping with tremendous ease, elements of traditional folk, jazz, sample-laden psychedelics, and lovely ragas are brought together within a distinctly electronica format. So bright and airy the tracks radiate with a sheer outpouring of emotion. So carefully laid out the many pieces intermingle to create something that has tremendous bright brilliant colors.

A carefree, easy-going rhythm introduces the album with the soothing keys of the title track “Singing Rock Lake”. The reimagining of a folk jamboree defines the wild “Eco Warrior (Miss Camouflage 2020)”. Quite expansive “The Righteous (Apache Mix)” opts for a cinematic flair to its majestic sound. Insistent beats with a dubbed-out presence emerge on the giddy “Voyage of the Mayflower”. Meditative to its very core the hypnotic rhythms of “Nomad” give it a soothing presence. Jazz-infused splendor reigns supreme on the stately “Electric Slide in Purple County”. Aptly named “Jamming at the Geronimo” has a joyous disposition to it. Sly percussion rests at the core of the swirling “Warriors of the Rainbow”. Going for an unhinged anthemic sound is the potency of the finale “Sky Boy 6 (Big Beat Mix)”.
“Singing Rock Lake” taps into the early innovative spirit of electronica pioneers, showing off the fresh approach of Jude Gwynaire in creating a timeless tapestry of sound.
