After returning from their voyage in the sea, rising artist ♥ GOJII ♥ shares the epic tales of their new album, BLISS IN THE MIDST OF UNCERTAIN TIDES, released on September 1st through Aural Alliance. They unleash an album that encapsulates whimsical feelings that bring joy through rough times. With their delicate melodies and production, ♥ GOJII ♥ creates a safe space for escapism.
“Dedicated to finding what makes you happy in the face of anxious uncertainty. The worlds I created in this LP helped me escape everything if just for a bit. I dedicate it to my found family who have continued to support me during these unprecendeted and downright horrifically difficult times in my life. If this album has helped during a rocky patch then my goal for this release has been reached.”

Drift into the safe haven ♥ GOJII ♥ created for us
Earlier in the summer, ♥ GOJII ♥ whispered the secrets of where to find this haven. The first singles, “WHERE U ARE” and “ALL THE TIME,” gave us a quick glimpse of what to expect during our visit to their world. The fluttering and bouncing production showcases some sparkle in our lives while simultaneously bringing warmth. As we take our next steps in this enchanting world, we feel a shift in the atmosphere. “LOVED ME” immediately teleports us through a luscious portal. While following the pathway, ♥ GOJII ♥ smoothes our spirits with elegant, vibrating melodies.
Once we arrive at our destination, we become engulfed in the wonders that surround us. “VELVET” allows us to fully embrace these new circumstances. Now, away from all the anxieties of our reality, ♥ GOJII ♥ gives us a chance to mellow out. After centering ourselves, the environment begins dancing along with us. With the breeze of the air and grass touching our skin, ♥ GOJII ♥ guides us into processing the past. The celestial melodies and glittering shutters in “ACHE” help us heal in a safe environment. When we close our eyes and feel the electricity in the air, we feel free from the heavy chains.
Finally, as our time comes to an end, ♥ GOJII ♥ reminds us to keep dancing. “SHIMMER” tells us a story of feeling the energy around us and flowing along to it. Between the cherubic vocals in the background and the glistening kicks, we are unable to stand still. Running through fields and feeling the chromatic energy collide with our bodies, we feel the curves of our cheeks rise.
After experiencing such wonders, ♥ GOJII ♥ advises us there are still obstacles to overcome as we return home. This time, wielding more hope in our loved ones, we continue longing for this new feeling we have acquired.
Escape to the world that ♥ GOJII ♥ built for us with BLISS IN THE MIDST OF UNCERTAIN TIDES!
