With this most recent single release, the third from the latest album, from Auckland alternative music makers, Mecuzine, comes a change in direction as to how they wish to send their music out into the world. The singles from their previous album, Cutting Stings, were all released, as you would expect, through the regular social media and internet sharing platforms. We all know which ones they are. We all know how little they reward those who make the very music that their livelihood depends on.
 
Knowing this, for their next album, Preset, Reset, which will see the light of day later in the year, they have decided to take back control and have opted to use only SoundCloud, Bandcamp and YouTube, systems which might not make them rich, but which at least don't make others so at their expense. It's a small step. It is a necessary step. It is how revolutions start.
 
What hasn't changed is the band's ability to create intriguing music, music which falls pretty much into the alternative and outer fringes of the alternative sound. Illusions offers a melancholic sense of hope with the parting of two people.  Where a journey's end has come but the experiences gained has left both parties stronger and wiser.  Loose and languid grooves and drive the track as it balances rock and roll weight and a more shimmering, indie vibe. As sparing beats with their previous single, Blue Skies, Mecuzine is great at building a wonderful combination of chilled atmosphere and rising tension, world-weary deliveries and beguiling, delicate musical lines as they weave their sound together into slow-burning, dynamic journeys

Darkest Day Remix– Originally written while the band were a 5-piece, this song came out of a turbulent time for multiple members of the band.  Suffering a loss in his family, Tony wrote of his helplessness at not being able to be where he needed to be at the time.  When experimenting with their new sound, this was one of the first original songs they overhauled.  The result is a powerful message with a hunting tone that resonates in our troubled times.
