Saxophonist Binker Golding and drummer Moses Boyd channel a sound as expansive as it is fierce, sculpting lightning-fast runs and whirling rhythms into vast, shapeshifting landscapes. Their music thrives on spontaneity: They recorded their 2017 album Journey to the Mountain of Forever with no edits or overdubs, and followed that studio LP with a pair of live recordings, 2018’s Alive in the East? and 2020’s Escape the Flames, captured at London’s Total Refreshment Centre. The duo’s forthcoming album Feeding the Machine breaks new ground: accompanied by electronic musician Max Luthert, they explode the timeline, using tape loops and delay to fashion a sound that seems to hover in place even as it charges forward.

The latest single from the album, “Accelerometer Overdose,” begins in uncharacteristically ambient territory, Golding’s horn moving in airy swirls over a low drone while Boyd’s rolling snares toss about in fitful gusts. As layers of echo accrue, Boyd digs into a muscular rhythm; Golding’s looping phrases resemble ambulance sirens dopplering through a crowded city. It only gets more intense as it goes, but despite the song’s title, the tempo barely budges; instead of playing faster, the musicians seem to delight in finding new ways to subdivide the rhythm, splicing beats into finer and finer slivers—a journey as much inward as outward.
