Proteins of Magic – The Future: 13th Floor New Song Of The Day

Proteins of Magic returns with The Future, a new single that fuses alt-indie, post-punk, and experimental rock into something dark, unruly, and arrestingly alive.

Here is the blurb with more:

Accompanying the release is a hand-crafted visualiser, created by the artist. It drifts through a warped procession of devilish caricatures, conjuring a not-so-distant world, both beautiful and grotesque. Echoing the song’s core tension, the piece lingers in a space where innocence curdles and oddity blooms.

Like the track, the visualiser offers no explanation. It flickers, unsettles, and stares right back.

About Proteins of Magic 

Proteins of Magic (the moniker of Kelly Steven) is a New Zealand-born, Nashville-based music and visual artist whose work in both mediums walks the line of visceral and otherworldly.

Her sound has been described as “mysterious, spiritually drawn from Gothic mythos and viewed through wavy vintage glass” (American Pancake) and as “a declaration of war” (Grimy Goods). With a deep vocal presence often likened to PJ Harvey and Patti Smith and an approach that “operates in the same dark and subversive corners where Fever Ray, Jenny Hval or Björk may find solace” (She Makes Music), Proteins of Magic occupies a distinctive lane in today’s alt-art landscape.

Her live sets are equally formidable: dramatic, confronting and immersive. Previous shows include Splore, Cuba Dupa, Cross St, BIGSOUND (Brisbane), Primavera Pro (Barcelona), The Great Escape (UK), and Big Ears Festival (USA).

“There’s an over-riding sense of beautiful, crafted tension here which is very much in line with the blurred edge between innovative alt-pop and contemporary art music” – Elsewhere.
