DEF BEATS, COSMIC MUSIC

Lyrics geometric. Colorful sounds to help you hover over in the summer weather. Get equipped with ethereal bliss from a faraway corner of the cosmos, or feel the power of a record like the bodyslammin' 87 To Heaven. Will C.'s catalog paints a third-eye-open landscape filled with stray VHS noise, dusted loops, spaced-out synthesis, and endless wild styles.

I USED TO LEVITATE!

Have you ever looked out the window and seen a squirrel burying acorns in the ground, frantically clawing at the dirt, saving for tomorrow? That’s kind of the story behind these recordings.

I USED TO LEVITATE!

Have you ever looked out the window and seen a squirrel burying acorns in the ground, frantically clawing at the dirt, saving for tomorrow? That’s kind of the story behind these recordings. Back when I was traveling at lightspeed, chopping records, looping tape, programming drum patterns, slicing records with worn out needles, triggering explosive sounds. Some of the sonic collage made it out to be heard worldwide. A lot got buried deep for the long winter. Problem is, just like the squirrel, I forgot where I put the dynamite. Time marched on, and on, and on.

One minute, the past is data disintegrating on floppy disks. The next, electrostatic shock reanimates young Will C. and makes the unheard burn bright. The CUTTING ROOM FLOOR IS LAVA!

Mostly recorded between 2007 and 2010.

released February 23, 2024

Lately, a lot of new listeners are discovering my music through my affiliation with Sail On: The Beach Boys Podcast (thanks Wyatt!). I produce a lot of music cues for the show. So, for those looking for some of the extended versions of beats used on the podcast, a good place to start is my project Adieu Or Die, which you can find here on the home page. There's so much more over at the Music section of the site. If you can't find it here, chances are it's made it to my YouTube page, but not quite here yet.

Thanks for listening, and keep on rockin'...

"The goal of this project is to rework selections from The Beach Boys catalog and give them a new, unexpected aesthetic. I want it to be a means for many to prick their ears up about an often overlooked larger body of work from one of music's most interesting groups, as well as a means for the long time fans with open minds to hear re-imagined versions of beloved material." - Will C.

Boston-based producer and Mr. Magic protégé reworks Beach Boys catalog on a FREE “fan-mix” album, to stunning effect

“'Adieu or Die' isn’t a few 'Pet Sounds' tracks with new drums on top; it’s a heavily researched, quietly ambitious, and brilliantly crafted work in its own right... – Boston Globe, Martin Caballero

“Dangermouse became a household name by reconstructing the Beatles illegally, and Dilla himself once took a go at reworking Pet Sounds, but Boston’s Will C takes his source material to new dimensions of trippy, sun-soaked instrumental hip-hop. The download comes with killer art, intricate liners and bonus cuts, all gratis, which should keep C outta court and bump his profile up a notch or 10. Rating: 9.5 out of 10." – Montreal Mirror, Darcy MacDonald

“Incredibly thoughtful [and] well-researched.” – WFMU’s Beware of the Blog, Noah Uman
