Elz the witch was known far and wide for her powerful and mischievous sorcery. She was a force to be reckoned with, capable of bewitching anyone or anything that crossed her path. Elz had a reputation for her wicked sense of humor, often using her magic to play pranks on unsuspecting victims. One day, Elz decided to target a small village located deep within the enchanted forest. The villagers had heard stories of her terrifying powers and were terrified of crossing her path. However, this did not deter Elz from casting her spells and causing chaos in the village.
19. Further Away (Escape Remix) by Stargods
Incorporating elements of gothic, Post Punk, dark dream pop, the band blends heavily textured guitars, droning synths, ethereal vocals, creating an otherworldly atmosphere. A deep guitar riff and dreamy synth swathes guide us into Starbreeze which appears to nurture the mysteries of the night air and it s magical properties.
However, this did not deter Elz from casting her spells and causing chaos in the village. One by one, the villagers fell victim to Elz's bewitching powers. She turned a farmer's crops into frogs, caused a baker's pastries to dance, and even transformed the village mayor into a talking cat.
REVIEW: MAGIC WANDS – SWITCH (2023)
Magic Wands are a dark dream pop trio formed by Chris Valentine (guitar, vocals) and Dexy Valentine (guitar, keyboards, vocals) in Nashville who currently have drummer Pablo Amador within their ranks. Their fifth album `Switch` is released this month.
The album begins with `Prelude` which is a brief aural soundscape almost akin to when an orchestra flexes their muscles before the beginning of a show. We have a fairly edgy offering in `Joy` which sems to question the very premise of the word with a flowing synth like sound and dreamy vocals splayed atop.
Title track `Switch` is a little more upbeat and seems to relish the arrival of something that is welcome but not explained. It has a rhythmic drumbeat and flowing synths with breathy vocals that really entice you in. A constant guitar riff and drumbeat lead us into `Daylight` which is pretty hypnotic and maybe relates to a world in which the narrator withdraws to.
`Falling Trees` is another captivating listen with lyrics that could be interpretated in a number of ways but to me maybe hinted at a religious connotation. A deep guitar riff and dreamy synth swathes guide us into `Starbreeze` which appears to nurture the mysteries of the night air and it`s magical properties.
`Time` is much more robust and faster paced and had hints of The Cure in their early formative days.
There`s a wonderfully ethereal vibe to `Whispers` which sounded like a mix match of Mazzy Star and The Cocteau Twins, quite delightful.
`Dream 92` is another track that will draw you into it`s spell with it`s alluring vocals, shimmering guitar chord riffs and magnetic drum beat. I initially thought that `Sea Glass` referred to something in a dream word but found it`s actually weathered glass found on beaches along bodies of salt water. The track itself is a further irresistible listen where you feel you are visiting another world or dream state.
`Further Away` is a faster paced composition with intermittent guitar solos spread over a driving beat and ruminative vocals that may describe a blurred existence between dreamlike fantasies and reality. The album closes with `Candle Sea` an ambient tranquil number to ease us out on.
Magic Wands are a really interesting and intriguing band and `Switch` their latest offering is really seductive and beguiling. Their music is dark, dreamy, gothic tinged post punk, at times minimal but in this case “less is certainly more.” An album that I’ll return to and am sure will discover further hidden gems.

The villagers were at their wit's end, unsure of how to protect themselves from Elz's hexes and mischief. As the days went by, the villagers grew tired of living in fear. They decided to come together and devise a plan to end Elz's reign of bewitchment. They consulted wise elders and researched ancient spells to counteract her magic. Armed with their newfound knowledge, the villagers confronted Elz in a dramatic showdown. They chanted ancient incantations and combined their powers to create a shield against Elz's spells. The air crackled with energy as Elz attempted to break through their defenses, but the villagers stood strong, determined to free themselves from her bewitching ways. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Elz's powers waned, and the villagers were able to weaken her spells. With one final burst of magic, they managed to strip Elz of her wicked powers and restore harmony to the village. From that day forward, Elz was no longer seen as a terrifying witch but rather as a cautionary tale of the dangers of harnessing dark magic. The village thrived, and the villagers learned to appreciate the power of unity and the strength that can be found in overcoming adversity. **The main idea of this note is the tale of Elz the witch and her bewitching powers, as well as the villagers' efforts to confront and overcome her..
