Future Pixels is an undiscovered enigma from South Gate, CA. Named after a Gorillaz lyric, the mysterious and psychedelic artist reveals no more than those two facts about himself online. Despite a low digital profile, he has released three impressive and innovative singles to date.
His most recent track Keep on (Bumping) belongs on the soundtrack for 2014 indie film Frank. Future Pixel’s progressive use of instruments is indicative of talent and understanding in the field of arrangement. Funky bass, keys and psychedelic guitar weave their way in and out of the soundscape, mingling with charmingly nonchalant vocals.
The sound opens up for a feel good chorus and a catchy hook that’ll rattle round in your head for a week after you hear it. Despite having no idea what the hook means, it’s been stuck in my head for the last five days, and I’m not mad about it. Keep on (Bumping) is a bop you should definitely take with you on your next roadtrip.
The Future Pixels project is “soon expanding to become much more than what it presents itself to be”. We’re utterly perplexed by this statement, and can’t wait to find out what that means. Scratch your head and wait with us on Spotify.
