There are some bands out there where, musically speaking, the future is now. Such is the case for the Tel Aviv group, Masok, which has delivered a preview of their forthcoming debut LP The Bigger The Risk with the stylish new track “Right Up Your Alley.”
The foursome consisting of Jenny Penkin on vocals, Nomok on keyboards and production, Tal Kohavi on drums, and Omri Shani on bass, coalesce for a soulful, entrancing single that should garner considerable excitement for the upcoming album that is coming out on Raw Tapes Records.
Built on a combination of an angular, repeating bass line, percolating drums, and dreamy keys, Penkin’s gentle vocal delivery flows effortlessly through the mix with thoughtful lyrics about persevering through adversity. With its unhurried beat, and original production aesthetic, “Right Up Your Alley” makes for a fascinating effort from Masok that should earn them some well-deserved attention ahead of the release of their debut LP.
