DOWNLOAD: Zs - 33~
You will turn on “33~” expecting it to break from its buzzing intro into a chorus. It never does, however, and such tension is the beauty of New York’s Zs. Mixing digital and real sounds, guitar and sax, kit and sticks into an amorphous instrument all its own, the avant-gardists thrive on the outskirts of various genres — the kind of chaos that asks harnessed free jazz or improvised composition. Either way, there is a poignancy behind each bleep, and the minimalist clang of “33~” leaves you with a sense of completion richer than any bridge will grant you. The track can be found on double 7-inch 33, out November 8 on Northern Spy.
