MH-071 Corduroi - Future Adventures  Future Adventures is the follow-up to Corduroi's critically acclaimed debut EP, Anything For Now. At just under twenty minutes spread across five meticulously produced tracks, Corduroi has delivered a release that uses more sound palate and highlights than many albums twice as long. "The Future" opens the album with swirling pads before breaking into sharp rhythmic synth and drum work with chopped vocals that sound submerged under water. "Glow Worm" features a beautiful synth pattern underpinned with glitched drums and electronic stabs. "Emerald Rain" and "Adventures" (which was co-produced by production phenom Galapagos) combine wonderfully off-kilter drums, cutting sawtooth bass, vocals pitched and morphed beyond recognition and enough change-ups to make it seem you've just listened to an entire career's worth of ideas. "Staticity" closes out the album out with an 80's slow-synth ballad worthy of a Georgio Morroder soundtrack. As a timely placed sample in the first track notes, "the only thing to be sure about the future is that it will be absolutely fantasic." |

| If you haven't heard Corduroi before, I tend to gravitate towards his dreamy, blissful beats when I need to relax or unwind. Love it. - Awesome Robo / Short and sweet, but enough to keep you wanting to play this along with his previous work. - This Is Books Music / These sounds are new and unique, like nothing we’ve heard from Corduroi before - Smoke Don't Smoke |

| Emerald Rain is the third track from Corduroi’s second upcoming EP Future Adventures, out February 14th (Valentine’s Day) on Mush Records. These new sounds are slightly more sophisticated and go further in depth in regard to his previous electronic compositions. It’s nothing like Corduroi has produced before. One reason may be because this track, along with one other on the upcoming EP, was co-produced by Austin producer Galapagos. Either way, his music has grown. If you’re unfamiliar with the Texas native that is Cody Wilson (Corduroi), it’s not to late to study up before the release of his upcoming EP. Corduroi sprung in 2005, sampling live instruments through his computer’s microphone and playing with anything he could get his hands on including guitar, ukulele, glockenspiel, toy piano, accordion, and trumpet. Since then, his experimental sounds have evolved maturely. I can’t wait to hear the full album and experience his new musical explorations. - The Record Stack |
