Our Take

GOGO PENGUIN's latest offering, "Everything Is Going To Be Ok," is like a musical hug in the form of a penguin waddling towards you with a smile on its face. The British trio have once again managed to blend jazz, electronic, and classical influences into a captivating sound that is both soothing and invigorating.

From the opening track, "Strata," the album takes you on a journey through a sonic landscape filled with unexpected twists and turns. The interplay between Chris Illingworth's intricate piano melodies, Nick Blacka's pulsating bass lines, and Rob Turner's dynamic drumming is nothing short of mesmerizing.

Tracks like "Kora" and "F Maj Pixie" showcase GOGO PENGUIN's ability to seamlessly blend acoustic and electronic elements, creating a sound that is at once modern and timeless. The album's title track, "Everything Is Going To Be Ok," is a meditation on hope and resilience, with its delicate piano motifs and ethereal atmosphere.

But it's not all introspection and contemplation. Tracks like "Embers" and "Don't Go" pack a punch with their driving rhythms and infectious energy. The album closes with "Signal In The Noise," a sprawling epic that builds to a crescendo of pulsating synths and frenetic drumming.

Overall, "Everything Is Going To Be Ok" is a testament to GOGO PENGUIN's musical prowess and ability to craft immersive and emotive soundscapes. So sit back, relax, and let the music wash over you – everything really is going to be ok.
