The psychedelic pop explorer Vinyl Williams has a wide range of interests outside of music - Egyptian BioGeometry and Russellian science, to name two -- that inform his dream-like, happily woozy songs and quietly epic albums. Often created by Williams alone using experimental methods of recording, his releases - especially 2018's Opal, which was partly recorded on handheld cassette recorder and VHS camcorder and 2022's relatively straight-forward, song-based Cosmopolis - maintained a steady course into the musical cosmos that saw the artist snapping up pieces of shoegaze, dream pop, soft rock, ambient music, and sunshine pop as he drifted past.
