Paddox are part of Oxford's intensely fertile creative scene, with their members drawing on multiple disciplines.
The trio's debut album 'Aphrodisiaque' emerged last year, a bewildering display that swung between genres in a freewheeling fashion.
New EP 'Optimistic Visions Of The Future' represents their next step, with Paddox moving their music forward once again.
Clash is able to premiere lead cut 'Past Life' and it whirrs with a life of its own. Deliriously inventive alt pop with a jagged electronic edge, you can tune in below.
