Recording of the Week, GoGo Penguin - Everything Is Going To Be OK

19th April 2023

A glowing return to form for the Manchester-based trio, this time digitally manipulating their unique acoustic sonorities to tackle post-human anxieties.

Emotive, break-beat minimalist trio GoGo Penguin are back, with their brand new album “Everything Is Going to Be OK”. Bursting with the optimism of new beginnings, with a new drummer, their new record label, (Sony Records' electronica and classical imprint XXIM Records), and a subtly updated and developed sound, the band are ushering in a more ambient era.

“Everything Is Going to Be OK” is born from a time of turbulence and loss. During an oppressive grieving period, the studio offered the band a sanctuary from real life. The resulting project, given such vibrant life here, draws its strength from a shared understanding and empathy. Life has many great aspects to it and despite the lows, we should be mindful and grateful to celebrate the highs at every turn. Through our hardships, we will emerge stronger - everything is going to be ok.

[Feeling] more spontaneous than a totally electronic album might […] Everything Is Going To Be OK is a lovely record. It’s the sound of hope bubbling up from the depths.

[…] a promising launch for GGP 3.0, showing all their fun grooving and epic sweeping shaded with a little more heart.

The album's gorgeous, blossoming title track and both versions of the brief but shining "You're Stronger Than You Think" demonstrate how they've maintained hope and positivity throughout these trying times. While working through the process of grief and healing, GoGo Penguin have created some of their most comforting and optimistic music.
