Notes

The week I moved to Denton I read an interview with Mazinga Phaser founder Wanz Dover regarding emerging bands in the Denton music scene. The article reads like a manifesto for the Denton music scene in the 90’s. I had yet to hear Mazinga Phaser or any of the new “Space Rock” bands popping up. That would quickly change. 

Cruising the Neon Glories of the New American Night, Mazinga Phaser’s first LP is a testament to the eclectic influences flourishing in Denton during the 90’s. The ambient drones of Mercury Rev and Spiritualized, the melodic shoegaze of MBV and Medicine, the experimental jazz of  “Bitches Brew”. The tracks all run together, as was the style at the time, exhibiting the prog sensibility.  Karl Poetchke, (Sivad, Ghost Car, etc) the go-to psychedelic trumpet player on many a north Texas band’s album, makes a prominent appearance weaving in and out of songs, tying things together beautifully.   Produced by Matt Castille of Dallas’ Vas Deferens Organization who later produced Ariel Pink With Added Pizzazz.
