"Updating a lost era when horror movies weren't 'ironic' and the directors knew how important the right synthetic soundtrack was. An era when 'progressive' was a word to cherish and musicians were sincere and serious in all their free-expressive ways. Team Doyobi have produced their long awaited second long player for Manchesters legendary Skam label. Choose Your Own Adventure is a modern conceptual album, a true journey from start to finish. As soon as the needle hits the record the listener it transferred into a world rooted within the fantasy and mythologies of a computerized new world. Where ancient psychedelic dreams mix with more futuristic ideals, immersing the listener between depths of serious modern electronic architectures. The fantasy landscapes accompanying the adventure in a 16 page full color booklet, bridge the gaps beautifully between abstraction and science fiction illustration. As does the Audio bridge points between electronica, progressive rock, computer based experimentation, academia, funk and fun. Neither retrospective nor nostalgic C.Y.O.A becomes Inappropriate as a lifestyle accompaniment, this album exudes freedom for the individual to shake loose to and trip out into the future. Land your mind through the dust clouds of their world, and travel safely along the rollercoaster ride of the collective Doyobi imagination. But always remember to Choose Your Own Adventure."
