J*DaVeY - Queen of Wonderland
Artist: J*DaVeY
Featuring: Thundercat
Producer: J*DaVeY
Album: New Designer Drug
Label: ILLAV8R
In Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland (and the well-known Disney adaptation), the Queen of Wonderland was portrayed as a psychotic despot, quick to order beheadings whenever anyone displeased her in the slightest—including her husband, the diffident White King. While the relationship described by J*DaVeY frontwoman Miss Jack Davey on the Los Angeles duo’s latest single (and first solo feature) is considerably less fraught with danger, the record is every bit as off-kilter and innovative as the literary reference would suggest—starting with Davey and behind-the-scenes partner Brooke D’Leau‘s production, which incorporates talkbox gabbling, alt-rock guitar and ambient synth breakdown. Over the shapeshifting backdrop, bolstered by guest instrumentalist Thundercat‘s hyperkinetic bass stylings, the singer expresses her devotion to the man who sits on the throne next to hers, ratcheting between childish coos and punk-informed wails at the drop of a hat. If this left-of-center banger leaves you craving more, keep it locked—New Designer Drug has yet to receive a drop date, but we’ll keep you supplied with the latest news and tunes.

Had I not seen J*Davey perform live this past summer in ATL, I might not appreciate their music as much as I do. Its best enjoyed in a live setting, so don't get down on their experimental stylings based solely on this one selection, but this funky fusion of sounds works for my ear drums.

Not the biggest J*Davey fan, but like Z I got to see them perform live so I do respect their talent.
