Live Review: Mazde 'Shifted Thoughts' ft. La Mar

The very first signing to Stoney Roads Records has released a killer new single.

Stoney Roads have done a few amazing things over the past few years and we're happy to say that today we're going to show you a track from one of the most unique signings to their new record label, MAZDE.

The producer is the electronic project of Bonn-born producer Matthias Dierkes and we have his track 'Shifted Thoughts' currently on repeat. The 20-year-old has combined all of his influences including his Dad's country albums, the Eastern European dance scene and his favourite producers, to create stunning tracks that the world will not be able to ignore.

'Shifted Thoughts' is MAZDE's first release through Stoney Roads Records and features the vocals of LA MAR. The track has a very laid-back vibe to it (which may or may not be drawn from the aforementioned country influence) and has the vocals moving hand-in-hand with the steady melody.

The vocals compliment the rest of the track and if you listen to 'Shifted Thoughts' enough times, it stays in your head and becomes a track that you enjoy humming along with. MAZDE will no doubt become more and more popular as the quality tunes churn out of his catalogue so it's probably a good idea to keep an eye on this one.
