'Sounds like Thundercat discovering Buddhism and artificial intelligence at the same time.' (Ex-Friendly, Truth & Lies Music/Totally Wired Radio) Best of 2022—Ghostly International Audio-visual, electronic-acoustic, spiritual-physical, vocal-instrumental. Multi-faceted Melbourne artist Cy Gorman represents these dualities and many more, with projects including sound and light spectrum therapy, extended & virtual reality, film, projection mapping and most importantly for us, music. Cy's work explores the intersection of beats, synths, jazz, AI and global music cultures. He has remixed for Los Charly's Orchestra (UK) and Hope Street Recordings (AU), and collaborated with Mindy Meng Wang. Cy's releases have had ❤️ from Mecca:83, Jazzy Jeff, Surprise Chef, Crazy P, Gilles Peterson, Allysha Joy, Richard Dorfmeister, Hotel Costes, Jamz Supernova, Close Counters, Soil & Pimp Sessions, Too Slow to Disco, Nick Mulvey, Jazzanova, Tru Thoughts, Innovative Leisure, Spotify Fresh Finds, Apple Music, Bandcamp Weekly, Mixmag, KCRW, Triple J and BBC. Cy's 'Hiwave' LP opens with the slo-mo saxy robo-soul of the title track, then two instrumentals mixing deep bass with playful touches (for fans of Sampha the producer). Next, the airy opening of 'Give Way' surrenders to an offbeat funky synth groove. 'Clockwork' sees Cy teaming up for a euphoric vocal duet with Christin Deralas (Menagerie, Lance Ferguson). Finally 'In Love With' and 'Game Coda' take us out over an ocean of wistful melody.
