Toro y Moi ha annunciato la pubblicazione di Boo Boo – il sesto album in studio del giovane musicista e produttore statunitense.

Il disco sarà pubblicato il 7 luglio via Carpark Records, a distanza di ben due anni da What For? e, secondo quanto dichiarato dallo stesso Chazwick Bradley Bundick, è stato influenzato dalle sonorità di Frank Ocean, Oneohtrix Point NeverTravis Scott:

I recognized that the common thread between these artists was their attention to a feeling of space, or lack thereof.

Toro y Moi è reduce da un periodo molto delicato che ha affrontato e superato grazie alla musica:

I decided that I wanted to make a Pop record with these ideas in mind. During this time of personal turmoil, I turned to music as a form of therapy, and it helped me cope with the pain that I was feeling. I’d listen to the same ambient song over and over again, trying to insulate myself from reality. I fell in love with space again. By the time I felt ready to begin working on a new record, I knew that this idea of space within music would be something that propelled my new work forward.

In concomitanza all’annuncio dell’album, Toro y Moi ha rilasciato Girl Like You – primo singolo accompagnato dal video a tutta vaporwave che trovate di seguito.
