Bambussy’s music is a concoction of various genres like world sound, folk, funk, indie and electronica that’s a perfect treat for music enthusiasts who like to experiment with their listening choices.

“Flux” is an anthem for the post-everything age that captures the listener’s attention right from the first beat.

The song’s lyrics deal with the overwhelming feelings of the world we live in, the constant changes that we have to face every day, and the uncertainties that come with it. Harrison’s sultry mezzo-soprano voice is the perfect complement to Bambussy’s moody and enigmatic production that keeps the listener on edge. The lush orchestral strings and warm brass motifs in the background add to the song’s atmosphere, giving it a rich, full-bodied texture.

Bambussy’s music is a beautiful mix of influences from various artists, including Goldfrapp, Fleetwood Mac, Kate Bush, Beirut, Gorillaz and Broken Bells. With “Flux,” the duo has created an entirely original sound that’s at once modern and timeless; it’s a perfect representation of their music, which captures a fusion of multiple genres, making it an exciting and unpredictable listening experience.

The song’s beats are captivating and drive the song’s energy forward, creating an almost hypnotic effect while the blend of different genres works seamlessly, with jazzy and trip-hop elements complementing the indie rock sound. The instrumentation is tight and precise, with every note serving a purpose in building the song’s mood.

We heard from Wuzy Bambussy who shared, “Hello Plastic magazine, this is Bambussy calling, it’s half past midnight, I’ve just returned from a lovely party in the little town of Box. I have a giant golden retriever jumping on me as I type this, so as Prince once sagely said ‘forgive me if I go astray’. I wanted to thank you kindly for including this music in your publication. It has been a long road to get this music to see the light of day and many dragons of self doubt were vanquished just to reach this point in time, I hope you enjoy our music and I hope you will enjoy the journey our monthly singles take you throughout this year. Big love! Bambussy.”
