Dearest Sir,

Your kind correspondence speaks volumes unheard to the quiet throes of my heart. It has been a long summer, the days permeated by ceaselessly searing sun and cacophonous croaks of cicadas, and the nights broken up only by the screaming sirens of law enforcement pursuing me at unbelievably high speeds. In actuality, the fuzz has been on my tail for about three months straight, but I keep urging myself forward, desperate for escape – a mental fortitude granted to me expressly by crazygoji’s new project, furious focus.

This album, much like myself in my current state, truly never lets off the gas for a second. The instant loud, disorienting syncopation of smokey the bear meets pyro knocks you off your feet from the very beginning, giving you a clear idea of how the next half hour is going to treat you, followed by water waste’s fake-out intro leading into a warped but enthralling second half. Every track is extremely evocative – regal and illegal feels like a mad pursuit by an evil wizard of some kind, and its canyons almost feels like a scene from some demented nightclub. The drums on this project often take center stage, notably on football song, conversion and defeat me dude where relentless crashes and bitcrushed snares at what seems like 6,000 bpm move the project forward, and the juxtaposition of the blast-beat rock A side against the more powerful, industrial B side provides an interesting yet thematically consistent turn of events that keeps everything interesting. It’s not until the very end that we earn a reprieve from the madness, and what a reprieve it is! wishful thinking’s gorgeous detuned piano, quiet drums & haunting vocals provide a complete change of pace, and the album slows to a crawl in its final moments.

Dearest Archibald, I do have to run, as the sirens are getting louder and it’s far too troublesome to write with a big quill while trying to drive a motorcycle. I trust you will prevail through these romantic new times as I have, with a newfound focus… furiously.

Warmest regards,
Sir Gant of Calo XVIII

CHICAGO, IL — crazygoji returns with his debut album horsey tunes. Chicago-based chiptune savant crazygoji is a man who needs no introduction. But for those unfortunate few whose earballs still have not witnessed the weird wonders of his body of work, let me break it down for you, son: Goji is the closest thing we’ve got to an Internet-era Syd Barrett. Goji’s music carries with it the optimism of the early Internet age, when technology seemed to be the cure for everything and the future still looked peachy. His tunes, horsey or otherwise, consistently convey a sense of nostalgia and hectic fun you can't find anywhere else (and I have looked in all the other places). Sometimes delirious, always joyous, crazygoji will be your new favorite musician from now until forever. I have decided this for you, no need to thank me.

crazygoji’s horsey tunes is, without a doubt, the most highly acclaimed album in this entire sentence. This album changed my life and, more importantly, my wife. And trust me, if it’s good enough for my wife, it’s good enough for you(rs). Mark my words, little people in my computer: horsey tunes will occupy the entire Billboard 200 from now on probably. Move over, Beach Boys – There’s a new horse in tune.

— Jim Jensky (famous journalist)


this album was made from april 7th to may 1st, and was written entirely in Ableton with the Genny VST with light flourishes of other synths (save for bar․io, which was written with Ableton's wavetable synth and an old 32-bit Roland Jupiter 6 emulation VST). the drum machines used were the dry session kit, gen purpose kit, Roland TR 808 and 909 kits default in Ableton, and Genny default percussion patches. this is the most I've used squarewaves before. currently trying to study norio hanzawa a little deeper. much thanks go out to my family and friends

Dear Friend,

Salutations, chap. It has been a quite a cold series these days and weeks. There has been ice-a-plenty, and the freezeful winds whisper sweet-nothings, such as "you're not about this life, pal. go back inside"

I sit in my chamber writing this to you, lamp lit. I'm grateful for this warmth... I'm not talking about the lamp. Deep in the monochrome solitude of my manor, my heart burns... in the romantic way. And it is all caused by the heat of this new and outstanding album, 'new time romantic', by crazygoji.

As a fellow romantic, it would be in your best interest to listen to this album. Its pleasant goofs and lovable romps has evoked feelings within myself that I haven't felt since I have been acquainted with you. Do you remember that windy April day where we laid outside on the hills eating watermelon? Somehow, I was reminded of this memory while listening to the album opener, 'watermelon good times', my heart and body immediately put into a trance.

crazygoji doesn't hold back this expression of romance. The subaqueousness of 'operators anonymous' brought me back to times in Costa Rica, where we joyously swam with the mysterious dolphins. 'major simpleton' immersed me back into the tranquil times at my humble manor with you, watching The Simpsons in the newly installed IMAX theatre. 'max goof' and 'spotless' took me back to the clubs in Ibiza, where Jodie Foster herself (I'm quite sure it was her... although she seemed a bit tall... hm...) complimented our romanticful dance moves. Does this excite you? I am confident you are making that face you always made when you got excited. I'm chuckling just imagining it... it kind of looked like this emote: (⓿_⓿)

But I digress.

'times new romantic' perfectly captures the halcyon days of our very romantic relationship together. After we separated I became cold and bitter, like the dry air of winter. However, this music has reinvigorated my capacity to love. I feel jubilant. I feel vivacious. Goofy. Romantical.

As you listen to these sounds, I believe it's power will lift your spirits as well, it's sheer groove and jovial atmosphere will have you embracing the love of the Earth itself. Believe me! I have hugged the floor a few times during my listening of this album, which is quite odd... I'm not sure how it made me do all that.

As I finish writing this letter, I hope that you are well. These new times are uncertain. But I am sure you will prosper... romantically.

Sincerely yours,

Archibald Buttsqueak


"Oh good heavens... 'bubbly brain' has, without a doubt, turned my brain into bubbles!"
— Archibald Buttsqueak, hugging the floor

"This album is really nice. I just could not stop dancing. 'seven deez' had me doing the worm! Made me remember the time I complimented that sick dancing couple in Ibiza."
— Jodie Foster (I'm like 65% sure. She looks just like her, though...)

"I was glad a friend of mine recommended this album to me. I haven't heard from him in years but I was really surprised to get a letter yesterday. Not really sure how he's doing though... he couldn't stop talking about 'times new romantic' and hugging floors... he's probably OK."
— Zoogarg the Alien

About:
In the heart of space, a lone pilot endeavours across the galaxy. His cargo: ten-thousand tons of Yttrium, and the immeasurable weight of years of solitude...
He lands on the carbon planet 55 Cancri e. Four times two the mass of Earth and four halves the radius, it reaches temperatures of 2,150 °C (3,900 °F). The pilot, profusely sweating, finds the galaxy's most remote musicians, the Four Men. The four men write all of their songs together, simultaneously. Will this eternal curse of solitude fade away? Godspeed...
