“Middle Ground” is a track released this week from Melbourne-based artist K.L. Mazlin. Serving as “an ode to getting older,” “Middle Ground” opens nicely with a piano-driven soulfulness, complemented by suavely yearning vocals. The eventual string-based addition joins nicely with bouncy piano past one-minute mark. 01:31 shows a consuming expansion into soaring psych-pop territory. “Middle Ground” is an enjoyably constructed track from K. L. Mazlin, developing from quaintly melodic beginnings to a suavely anthemic fervor in the second half. I’m fond of the track’s vocal soulfulness and second-half expansion, in particular.
