There’s so much to be anxious about at any time that it can overwhelm our abilities to connect with each other and be creative — a central theme in New Age Rage, primo multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter Eric Slick’s latest album. The title track confronts concerns about artificial intelligence and the damage humans have done to our relationship with nature. The more conversations about serious issues we can have amid dense, funky, danceable arrangements like this one — which draws from pop, funk and R&B geniuses of the ’70s and ’80s — the better.
