goodcry releases new single “Operate”

Multi-instrumentalist Spencer Hoyt originally hails from California but has since moved to Ontatio in Canadian where he’s recently unveiled his new project called goodcry. With a love of storytelling and getting lost in music, he takes elements of indie rock, electronic music, hip hop and expansive soundscapes to craft his own unique sound.

Making his debut in July with the single “Low,” he now brings us his sophomore single with the brand new track titled “Operate,” an audacious new dimension of his sonic output. The song opens with a crisp, infectious beat that immediately injects energy and compelling rhythm.

goodcry’s vocals make their entrance, coated with a clinical, robotic veneer that lends an intriguing juxtaposition to the music’s lively rhythm. The processing of his vocals adds a layer of colour and complexity, mirroring the song’s context and lyrical exploration.

Throughout the track, goodcry’s lyrics challenge the questionable practices of modern healthcare and the medical establishment that dictates its actions. Written in a hospital waiting room in Ontario, the song questions the over zealous use of pharmaceutical solutions and the prioritisation of treatment over prevention.

The track reaches an emphatic crescendo that sees goodcry’s vocals soar above a mix of gritty synth layers and punching drums, “Operate” is a brooding, danceable electronic pop outing that sees this exciting artist go from strength to strength on his second outing.

With a monthly release schedule set for the rest of the year and a string of live performances lined up for the coming months, goodcry is set to close his breakout year on a high. With his highly original sound and conscious approach to songwriting, goodcry is no doubt a name that more and more fans will come to know during the rest of this year and beyond.
