Exploding In Sound Records

MASTER OF THE WEEK (05-10-26 - 05-16-26) : Landowner "Assumption" / Exploding in Sound Records (out 02-27-26)

Beck Zegans closes out the singles run with “Riddle”, the third preview of Engraving of Armor (May 22, Exploding In Sound). El Kempner of Palehound plays guitar. Co-produced with Alex MacKay and Julian Fader, the track went through layers of synths and reworks before Zegans stripped it back and let it be odd. It is. #BestNewMusic2026 #W20 #BeckZegans @beck.zegans #ExplodingInSoundRecords @explodinginsound /fr2rx0l
