New York-based garage rocker [**Dmitry Wild**](https://dmitrywild.com/) presents
a rock anthem with meaning –** **[**‘Liberation’ feat. Tryst**](https://dmitrywild.bandcamp.com/track/liberation)
is the first taster of his forthcoming [**‘Electric Souls’ **](https://dmitrywild.bandcamp.com/album/electric-souls)**
album**. The [**accompanying video**](https://youtu.be/_YnVTPaQT-Q)** **features
imagery, symbolizing both protest and hope, with film footage captured in Ukraine,
Spain, Czech Republic and various US locales, including Florida, Massachusetts, 
Tennessee and San Francisco.

Showcasing his trademark blend of 70’s vintage rock, garage rock and punk ethos,
this song is quite timely, speaking to a great number of situations around the world
where oppression is systemic and power struggles endure at the people’s expense.

Dmitry wrote** ‘Liberation’** as a virtual rock opera – a two-part opus dedicated
to liberating ourselves from the oppressions of the systems in place. The first 
part roars as a classic rock banger before transitioning to a notable confrontation
with a policeman at the protest while searching for what unites us, before an epic
solo inspired by **David Bowie’s ‘Moonage Daydream’**. The song ends with Tryst 
joining in, the duet singing in tandem _“Set us free, Love will Rise and set us 
free”_.

“This album is rooted in our human experience in the 21st century. Things have come
to a boiling point this year on the social and climate front and at the global level.
There are protests, virtual revolutions and personal revolutions that we are all
undergoing, but by arming ourselves with electricity and guitars, we are still making
noise and yelling about our belonging in this beautiful and wild place,” says **
Dmitry Wild.**

“As fears subside, we can gather together and sing for ‘Liberation’. The only thing
that binds us together is our voices – in unison they create a thunder storm as 
resistance movements unveil their power, as people ultimately realize that higher
powers control a lot beyond our voting rights.”

Very passionate about the craft of songwriting, Dmitry Wild used the downtime of
the great pandemic to get some serious work done, completing the final writing for
this solo album and gradually recording this material. Some material from earlier
is also included, dating back to when he was living in California.

With music steeped in garage rock and rock n roll, this album also brings in the
flair of 80’s epic synths, bluesy songs, gypsy-inspired compositions, and 70’s-inspired
driving tunes.

On this album, Wild collaborated with [**Strange House Media**](https://www.instagram.com/strangehousemedia),
their main engineer, [**Byron Frayne**](https://www.instagram.com/byronfrayne), 
mixing most of the songs included here and mastering the full album. This collaboration
also extended to the two songs released from this album to date – the videos for
[**‘Don’t Need Anybody’**](https://youtu.be/-adgLSVmOqg) and** ‘**[**Castle Walls’** ](https://youtu.be/eKO-sw8YoQ0)
were also created in collaboration with Strange House Media, Byron Frayne and** **
Tryst** **as editor.

On the live music scene, Dmitry’s shows take on a more rocking sound. Performing
under the name** [Dmitry Wild & The Spells](http://www.instagram.com/dmitrywildandthespells)**,
the band currently involves **Tommy Love** on drums, **Robert Paley** on bass, **
Garret Smelcer **on keyboards, and** David Varlow** on rhythm guitar. He is also
sometimes joined by notable Rockabilly bassist **Chops LaConte** and then things
take on a more theatrical turn.

‘Liberation’ is out now, available at all fine online music platforms, including
[**Apple Music**](https://music.apple.com/us/artist/dmitry-wild/id1513033697)**,
[Spotify](https://open.spotify.com/artist/1mdE8vuUBboqNxfhnlxLtr) **and** **[**Bandcamp**](https://dmitrywild.bandcamp.com/),
where the[** ‘Electric Souls’ LP**](https://dmitrywild.bandcamp.com/album/electric-souls)****(
out October 15) is already available for pre-order.
