OPPORTUNITIES IN DISGUISE RELEASE // CRYBABY OF VENUS IS A THING // TENANT OF NEPTUNE IS ALSO A THING // KINGSTON UNDERGROUND COMING SOON


OPPORTUNITIES IN DISGUISE



What is crisis? Opportunity? It doesn't matter. We must forget these things. Our lives are predetermined. We merely follow the path of fate, grasping onto an illusion of decision. We don't suffer crises, we suffer opportunities, opportunities to learn from our mistakes and grow stronger!

On Saturday, November 9th, we attempted to form a spontaneous orchestra. Unlike the traditionalist orchestras you may have experienced in this life, we invited any and all musicians to be a part of it, and to play whatever instruments they wanted. There was no sheet music. There were no guidelines at all -- we made it up as we went along. From our massive improvised jam session was born a fatalist symphony of never-before-heard proportions! And we were the composers and performers.

"How do you know you're not going to make a mistake and screw the whole thing up? Because there are no mistakes. Only opportunities."

CRYBABY OF VENUS IS A THING
Crybaby of Venus, one of the two participants in XOFY1, has released a new EP called WHY IS LIE!?. The EP continues some of the same themes from the last release, but with some tighter production. Weird electronic music made with 100% processed a cappella stems, written and recorded in one day, as always.

TENANT OF NEPTUNE IS ALSO A THING
The other half of XOFY1 releases a single entitled Darkness Lake today. It is an anti-cover of Nupela Masalai's "Sunshine Island," an as-of-yet unreleased track from Science and Fairy Tales, the fourth album of Season 1, set to release soon. The B-side is inane scribblings. Together, they hint at a new TofN record.
