London-based artist Giack Bazz pushes the boundaries of genre and storytelling with his latest album, Bedtime Stories for Computers. This ambitious project marks the culmination of a trilogy that began in 2018. Spanning alternative rock, heavy indie, electronic music, and contemporary classical, the album is a sonic odyssey that critiques the modern age while serving as a poignant ode to humanity’s evolving relationship with technology.
Bedtime Stories for Computers builds on the foundations laid by its predecessors Giack Bazz Is Not Famous and Just a Little Bit More Famous. Unlike the introspective themes of fame and identity explored in the earlier records, this album shifts focus outward, delivering a "lullaby to the black mirrors" that dominate our lives. Its concept feels as though it belongs in the worlds of Blade Runner or Black Mirror, with Giack Bazz crafting anthems for a society increasingly defined by its reliance on technology.
The album’s multi-faceted sound is nothing short of extraordinary. Giack Bazz enlists two full band formations, an orchestra, and two choirs—one human, one machine to create a rich, layered experience. Tracks transition seamlessly from the grit of alternative rock to the sweeping beauty of orchestral arrangements, and the inclusion of electronic elements adds a futuristic edge.
Fans of Bright Eyes, Jack White, Djo, Phoebe Bridgers, and The Smile will find echoes of their artistry in this work, but Giack Bazz’s signature style ensures that Bedtime Stories for Computers stands on its own.
Giack Bazz’s evolution as an artist is evident in every detail of this release. From the orchestral grandeur to the introspective lyrics, it’s clear this project was three years in the making. Standout tracks like the hypnotic opener and the emotionally charged finale highlight his ability to balance complexity with accessibility.
The release of Bedtime Stories for Computers on gatefold orange vinyl provides a tangible piece of art for collectors.
Bedtime Stories for Computers is Giack Bazz’s most ambitious work to date. It’s not just an album, it’s an experience, a critique of modernity, and a heartfelt ode to the digital age. With its innovative soundscapes and profound themes, this album solidifies Giack Bazz’s place as a trailblazing artist in contemporary music.
