Cuco Wants to Hack the Space-Time Continuum on Psychedelic Track ‘Time Machine’
Cuco is doing a little time traveling ahead of his upcoming album, Fantasy Gateway. The Mexican-American singer-songwriter, known for music with a psychedelic kick, has shared his new song “Time Machine,” a dreamy rumination about what it would mean to teleport to the past and change the outcome of a relationship.
“When I wrote the song, I was sitting in my bed recording an audio message in a vulnerable space at a low point in my life,” Cuco said in a press release. “I took that and brought it into a world of hyperrealism and space-time travel.” He dropped the song alongside a lyric video with a homemade, cyberpunk-styled aesthetic.
The song follows “Caution,” the first single from Fantasy Gateway. The woozy, blown-out track dropped alongside a video featuring trippy visuals by Grin Machine and directed by Cole Kush, fitting the sonic universe Cuco has carved out over his last couple of projects. After a couple of EPs and a two-year bidding war from labels who wanted to sign him, Cuco released his debut album, Para Mi, in 2019.
