Toro y Moi releases Causers of This instrumentals

Toro y Moi drops the instrumentals for his seminal 2010 chillwave classic Causers of This. Read Chaz's statement about the release + listen below, and buy the record here.

'Causers of This' is a glimpse into my early life as a suburban, American, POC. It is a reaction to what it feels like to lose. Ironically, all of the sessions and files making up the album were lost in a car burglary in 2009; all that was left were the instrumentals. The lyrics were the last element added on this particular record and I'm excited for my listeners to experience the album the way I first intended it to be. Now, 10 years later, it feels more appropriate than ever to release this pared-down version of the record to leave space for thought and reflection. Thank you all for being a part of this journey with me. - Chaz Bear
