Results Not Typical by Psycliq Psycliq : Results Not Typical.
 An electric heart with an organic soul.

Results Not Typical is the third album from Psycliq, a one-person outfit from the Boston area that usually produces a unique mix that can generally be described as electronic rock. This album, however, is quite different from the normal fare. The jazz, blues, and classical elements that underlie the usual Psycliq music are brought to the fore in the artist's most ambitious project to date.

The sonic landscape ranges from the majestic "Those Born of Kings" into the contemplative "Another Empty Hour In Every Day"; from the lonely blues rock of "Dustwood" to the brash groove of "Setting Out"; from the sly jazz of the "Incognito Shuffle" to the complex layers of "Mettle"; this album manages all of these diverse styles and more with aplomb and grace.

This may not sound like the usual Psycliq fare, but be assured that the roots are still there, pulsing with every ounce of life and energy you would expect. Expectations and formulas may be left at the door, thank you.

All songs and instrumentation are once again the sole work of Justin Richer, the unique mind behind this unique band.
