Seizing upon the 21st-century craze reminiscent of the good old days, James takes his powerful lyrics and transforms music into medicine to fuel the body and soul. He decided to pay homage to some of the artists that inspired him and that is how the collection “INTERGALACTIC” came about; this is a 16-track delicious slice of incredibly performed music; be prepared for mood-evoking quality music that makes you feel alive as you enter into a state of music inspired bliss!
“INTERGALACTIC” is expected to officially drop on the 7th of December 2022 and the whole music world is looking forward to this day. Zachary went out of his way to make something for the ages in collaboration with some of the best talents to ensure that you have something timeless and that you can identify with easily. “INTERGALACTIC” comprises a whirlwind of sound that spins tales of love, heartbreak and elevating consciousness. Featuring plush vocals and stylistic delivery, Zachary epitomizes the soul.
I’ve been listening to this album on repeat; played it all night through my dreams, just woke to it and I feel like Moses! I can’t wait for the world to listen to it; there is so much to enjoy from it and the design, arrangement and performance throughout really leave nothing to be desired.
James really gave a track like “Mon Soleil” a brand new look whilst still managing to honor the original composition. The multi-lingual lyrics, delightful vocals, and enthralling accordion make this a straight staple. “Mon Soleil” which is a French word that translates to “My Sun” is reflected via its dazzling effects in a listener’s heart and soul.
“Starving” features the remarkably gifted Yi-Chen Jane Lin on the keyboards with James’ plush vocals deliciously slinking over the instrumentation with command and clarity to ensure you have an unforgettable listening experience. This love-inspired ballad feels so therapeutic and emotionally relatable than anything I have listened to in quite a while.
The crisp clean melodies emanating from the stringed ukulele make the tune “When Love Takes Over” more appealing. The heart and soul put into the making of this make for a very inspiring listening experience; there is those emotions I developed while listening to this masterpiece that I didn’t even know existed.
This album is antique; beyond valuation and one that will be 2022’s Zachary highlight and what I personally hold will be hailed as a milestone in music ingenuity; this album feels honest and mature, and sonically where James wants to go as an artist!
Mark 7th December on your calendars and patiently wait for what is the unveiling of the album of the year; see you then!
