Number 2 in the Competitor Product Year of Weekly EPs

In this EP, all of Cy's nervousness about his attempts to be sentimental manifest themselves as swarmingly busy pop compositions with quirky electronics.

The former Girls With Depression songwriter brings quirky sparkly sounds to sentimental compositions about video games and how they affect the emotions of the people who play them.

2015 is a bright year for this kind of pseudo-pop alternative watchamahoozie with no real genre. Alternative electropop maybe? Contact Cy and tell him what genre you think this is.

HISTORICAL NOTE: This EP has been modified from its original release. Lyrics were changed slightly in "You Can Feel Safe" and dramatically in "Fabulous Place." The originally released versions of these songs are not preserved and therefore extremely rare but you wouldn't want them anyway. The mix of the original version was really bad. I was in a hurry to push it out on a Friday release. I felt terrible about my shoddy work and fixed it as soon as I could. The updated version was released at about 9:30 on January 19th, 20115.
