JOE’s Song Of The Day #861 – Æ MAK ‘Intro; Release Yourself’

Dave Hanratty

Æ MAK Song Of The Day

An incredibly bold statement.

Spearheaded by Dundalk artist Aoife McCann, Æ MAK has gradually evolved into one of Ireland’s most intriguing and legitimately inventive projects.

McCann leads the way – particularly at live shows and in official promo videos – as a fearless and graceful physical presence, embodying work that has drawn valid comparisons to the likes of Kate Bush and Björk.

Æ MAK’s latest effort ‘Intro; Release Yourself’ – teased as something of a new beginning by McCann – strides boldly into Fever Ray territory, emerging as a brief clockwork puzzle of sharp electronic bursts and searching, alien vocals.

Dive in below.
