With the recent release of their EP ‘Fall’
Pixel Fix, an indie electronic four-piece hailing from
Oxford are touring the UK, not forgetting a date down at The Riverside in
Sheffield.
Title track of their latest EP
‘Fall’ opened
with hazy electronics joined by spiraling guitar riffs and dreamy vocals
presented by front man Marcus Yates. Lyrics ‘too far too fall / I’m
falling, I’m falling’ had you submerged in
the ethereal atmospheric sound of the band. Different pitched vocals playing
through a backing track in songs such as ‘Ember’ from
their first self-titled EP ‘Pixel
Fix’ created
a layered echoing effect, adding all the more to the dreamy atmosphere building
throughout the set.
The night was quick and short but this was all
you needed to get a taste of what these boys are all about. It was just long
enough to get you lost in the innovative sound of Pixel Fix before taking it
away leaving you longing for more. After a set full of intricate blends of
electronic-infused indie rhythms and with all members in control of multiple
instruments and musical equipment throughout the set, pulling it off near
flawlessly, future expectations of this Oxford four-piece are high. Pixel Fix
are certainly ones to watch.
