In addition to running his own label, Faux Discx Records, and playing in the band Cold Pumas, Brighton, UK-based Dan Reeves also finds time to record songs all by his lonesome under the moniker Soft Walls.After recording and releasing the eponymous Soft Walls album in 2012, Reeves set to work again, this time with a borrowed 8-track and a vision of composing a suite of thematically-interlaced tunes. The result is hisTrouble In Mind debut, No Time, out July 29th.

No Time‘s ten songs are meditations on the passing of time and the preconceived notions of what you can and should be doing with it. Lyrics touch on the universal fear held by many young people heading north of their Twenties — what am I doing, and will I have enough time to do it? Reeves spent many hours writing and re-writing at home and in his rehearsal space before hitting “record” and that deliberation shows. While his debut was constructed as-it-happened and recorded directly into his computer, No Time‘s patience proves just how far his song craft has progressed, seamlessly aligning his pop smarts with avant-leaning psychedelic drones and a propulsive, rhythmic drive.
