"As soon as you hit play on Frequencies you know that youβve entered into the realm of something new... CoolGuyCoolGuy wasnβt content at creating the same kind of paint by numbers record that a lot of new artists push out there... Such a strong record, and most certainly an artist you want to keep your eyes (and ears) on."

CoolGuyCoolGuy is a mixture of a lot of different things: A robot. An alien. A human. Com Truise. Perturbator. Vampire Step-Dad. And much more...
He (or she? no one knows for sure) uses a wide range of influences to break boundaries within synthwave and within herself (itself?) as an artist.
FREQUENCIES, the debut EP from CoolGuyCoolGuy, flows from darksynth, to outrun, to synthpop, to post-synthwave, and many more genres. The album's ambitious scope is only matched by its consistent brilliance, and with mastering done by the brilliant The G (@nerds_feather) it is as crisp as it is bangin'.
And since there's nothing cooler than helping out people in need, all money given to CoolGuyCoolGuy for their work is given directly to charity.
So give it a listen, enjoy the ride, and as always...
Stay cool (ββ¨_β¨)
