♫♪  Così e Così - No IRL

For his fourth and final installment in #SelfExit2014, Così e Così demands there is No IRL. Following Self Exit, Boi Meet Grl, and Being You Black Utopia, Così e Così “reaches and grabs from previous albums, and even further back from previous projects, yet moves forward while holding tight in No IRL with repeated hashtags into URL and beyond.” Personally, I find his breathless exhaustion of vocal and lyrical crooning as the most important thematically-audible element of how he expresses the root of #SelfExit. It’s not egotistical. It’s not particularly meticulously crafted (in the professional sense of a vocalist). Così e Così flagrantly strips his human nature by deploying an over abundance of autotune effects. And it brings to mind TMT’s first 2014 year-end feature, prominently.

Like the rest of the #SelfExit2014 series, No IRL will (ironically) be released on cassette tape, only this time via Jeunesse Cosmique. As well, Così e Così is headlining his album release party December 10 at 9PM in a wonderfully crumbling (mebbe) part of Montreal, along side Guillaume Vallée, YlangYlang, and Effet Werther. Quebecians, keep on the look out! But have a sweet taste of No IRL via digital stream, below:
