MAJAK DOOR UNVEIL IRIDESCENT NEW SINGLE ‘SMOKE IN THE AIR’

SUPPORT FOR ‘SMOKE IN THE AIR’

“Mesmerising new cut.
The Music (AUS)

 


Melbourne-based surf-rock group Majak Door have today returned with their charismatic new single ‘Smoke In The Air’ – produced by Daniel Caswell (Dune RatsBad//DreemsThe Living End) and the band themselves.

Opening with suave synths and shimmering clean guitars, ‘Smoke In The Air’ fluently floats at a tranquil tempo. Steady drums and stoic bass complement the serene vocals of lead singer Frankie Vakalis, as the song swells and glides into a sparkling chorus brimming with the reverb-laden elements of superlative indie music. Spirited alternations take the track to its highpoint before sensibly alleviating for a pure finale.

Vakalis talks about the process behind ‘Smoke In The Air’:

“The single ‘Smoke in the Air’ was written during January of 2020, when Melbourne had been engulfed in smoke from the near bushfires. The upcoming album touches on many different areas; nostalgia, friendship, politics, and anything else that crosses the mind of a 20-something-year-old.”

Previous releases have been extensively supported by the likes of Spotifytriple j, triple j UnearthedFBi RadioSYN FMRadio Adelaide4ZZZ, and 2XX FM. It also received online praise from PileratsMilkyThe Australian Music SceneDeafen CountySomething You SaidBackseat Mafia DownunderThe SoundcheckAAA Backstage and Like Velvet.

Majak Door’s debut self-titled album, which also features previous singles ‘Will She Leave You’ and ‘L’acqua Salata (Ain’t So Sweet)’ is due for release on Friday, September 17, and is available to pre-order now via 24Hundred.

Since their inception, the band have consistently traversed the East-Coast of Australia, packing out shows across Sydney, Wollongong, Newcastle and Melbourne, as well as supporting local contemporaries PlanetThe GrogansSeaside and Merpire.

In the coming weeks, Majak Door will reveal an accompanying music video for ‘Smoke In The Air’.

‘Smoke In The Air’ is available worldwide now
