Zach is back! (Lipkins, of course)

Zach Lipkins2

Remember our interview with Zach Lipkins, the musical genius out of the Berklee School of Music in Boston? Well, you didn’t think we’d leave you hanging with just that did you?? No! Zach is back – he sent three brand new songs our way as he readies himself for his next album. Details are a little iffy concerning that new album, but we’ll keep you updated.

As for the new songs, Lipkins somehow manages to make his electronic pop all the more accessible while staying true to his singular sound. You can hear the development, as these tracks are more polished and full than previous ones. He effortlessly moves from simple beats to instrumental bursts, with slow build-ups to accentuate the effect. This is the premiere (can we call it a Knox Road Premiere?? ;)) of “Cultivate Your Light” – no one has heard it yet, and it’s the best song of the bunch, with an incredibly catchy underlying guitar line. These songs may change some come album time, but get your sneak peek below.
