E. Bobby G.: Bobby Business

Research Records teams up with organist and synthesist E. Bobby G. to release his sophomore album, Bobby Business. Once again, the album is primarily centered around the 1982 Kawai DX900, but it masterfully explores more genres than his debut, Giving You M.O.R.E. Bobby Business was recorded in 2022 after E. Bobby G. received an eviction notice from his beloved sharehouse of 12 years. After moving out, he stored the organ at his workplace, Bakehouse Studios, where his boss let him use the space overnight to record until the early hours. The remainder of the album was recorded in his old studio space, NGBE. The first track, 'Ha-Ha,' is as meditative as it is glittery, with floating sustained chords. 'Big Boy' and 'Disco Shift' bring back a slightly more polished E. Bobby G. sound, lo-fi library music with bright tones that will appeal to fans of proto-electronic icons like Brian Bennett. Tracks like 'Lucky Strike' and 'Tropical Dino Ride' are video game music dreams, featuring West Coast lead lines and strutting percussion. The second half of the album explores spaced-out '90s downtempo and dub elements, with a distinctive refinement that hides the fact it was created primarily using the Kawai DX900. Bobby Business closes with 'Lillian,' a sonic dedication to the artist's Grandmother, with a more traditional song structure that hints at what Bobby has planned next. Tracklisting: A1.
