Massive Shoe

Way Dynamic, the solo project of Melbourne's Dylan Young,releases internationally for the first time, Massive Shoe - a thirdalbum that's playful and understated, luminous and textured.Massive Shoe is minimalist folk-pop, art rock and baroque pop,produced and largely played by Young, who moonlights inMelbourne's beloved Cool Sounds and Good Morning and hasplayed drums with Snowy Band and Kankawa Nagarra.It's tempting to only compare these songs to those of yesteryear- Young's falsetto, his ear for harmonies and the intricatearrangements all feel timeless. But there's a sensibility, a turn ofphrase, that feels deeply contemporary: it's telling thatWaxahatchee's Katie Crutchfield described Miffed It as herfavourite song in a VERY long time, and Katie, MJ Lenderman,This is Lorelei and Black Country New Road have all taken WayDynamic on tour, while Sir Elton John said that he just cannotstop listening to Ibiza. Young's songs don't shy away fromsentiment, or equally from silliness: on any given song he mightsuggest a flight to space or earnestly lament amiscommunication. Can we walk and talk as well? he asks onI Was the Dancer, and we rush to accept the invitation.
