Joshua Pearlstein is the artist who merges classic pop and disco drama, hailing from Atlanta, GA, and now making waves in Boston, MA. His songs are as innovative as they are catchy, showcasing his flair for songwriting– and on his latest single, “Wandering Degenerate”, he takes us through a groovy, catchy listen — keep reading for my thoughts!
The start of the track is marked by a deep, rumbling bass synth that eases the listener into the groove, sound tracked closely by the gentle, wafty pads in the background– and as the vocals take the centre stage, Joshua’s rich, layered vocal harmonies take over, creating a wide expanse of sound that makes for quite the rewarding listen right from the get go. As motifs turn into melodies, and then further into progression, “Wandering Degenerate” manifests as a smooth-flowing, polished-sounding listen that does not, at all, fail to charm.

The sound design with the distant, reverberating vocal lines, and the choice of the instruments retain the listener’s interest from start to end; bringing a smile that goes from ear to ear.
