4fro Nick‘s 7-inch vinyl release blends indie rock, soul, and psychedelic electronics. The A-side, “Don’t Waste My Time (LA mix),” is a driving carpe-diem anthem featuring vibrant brass and scorching guitar work, while the B-side, “Get There Before Noon (LA2 mix),” offers a moodier, synth-kissed introspection on living in the moment.
“Don’t Waste My Time (LA mix)” gets underway with an absorbing mixture of spacey keys and twangy guitars, bolstered by steady bass undercurrents and a vibrant brassy emergence. “Just for tonight,” an anthemic vocal feeling resonates. “Meet me right now, let’s have some fun,” a jovial, carpe-diem sensation emanates in the “let’s go out” beckoning — resembling a cathartic call against complacency and simply sitting at home. A scorching-hot guitar solo and riveting organs then dazzle in their interplay, culminating in another memorable “just for one night” vocal spell with brass-touched savvy. “Don’t Waste My Time (LA mix)” is an infectiously stylish standout, showcasing lovely energy in both its production and playful music video.
The release’s b-side, “Get There Before Noon (LA2 mix),” also impresses. A moodier vocal introspection compels alongside dreamy, caressing synth pads and psychedelic electronics. “And on one day, you gonna miss that day,” the vocals envelop during a memorable hook, punctuated by a suavely alluring guitar solo. Both tracks shine with magnetic, melodic prowess and a lovely blend of guitars, electronic, and anthemic vocal power.
