On his debut album babycasey, Toronto’s Casey MQ distilled his nostalgia-laced brand of effervescent pop into 13 fantastical tracks that fused diary-like introspection with anthemic electronic music qualities. Not forgetting his background in classical music, too.
The producer, songwriter and composer – who also co-founded virtual club and online queer rave Club Quarantine in 2020 – leans into the subtler side of his palette as he delivers a subdued yet heady mix that evokes the calming feeling of being underwater.
“This is a collection of my unreleased material over the last few years – songs, palettes and sketches I’ve made for various projects,” says Casey. “I often want to make music that leaves me feeling submerged in water to comfort me in quieter moments of life.”
