PREMIERE: TUVAL “MIND IS FOR REAL”

Indirectly inspired by the artist’s personal journey recovering from addiction, “Mind is For Real” is a slow-burn, psychedelic encounter that takes you on an exotic adventure. Angst-filled, introspective lyricism combined with a sense of fuzziness, reaching to the edge of what’s real and what’s not.
“Mind is For Real” is a tune hard to define by any genre. It puts the traditionally anticipated grunge, psychedelic, or dream pop into new content. It floats in its own space, creating and communicating with a new language.
There’s no control over where the journey of awakening will take you. Tuval unintentionally touches on an ancient, spiritual realm rooted in Eastern culture and beyond. Fascinating ornaments come into the melody with unexpected colors and gests. “Mind is For Real” has way past the border of definition.
The London-based artist/multi-instrumentalist/producer/songwriter Tuval has been active in the music scene for quite a while with a handful of EPs and singles. The productive artist is never tied down to one experience, continuing to expand his color palettes.
