CQQL Records out of Los Angeles is primed to launch with a split 7" featuring Boy Dude and Mickey de Grand IV: two effortlessly smooth blissed-out AOR cuts, an homage to the warmth and comfort of AM radio. “Cosmic Lines” from Boy Dude, the luscious and luminous standout single from his LP “Cassette For You” is a fan favorite just dying for a single release on 7”. “Geraldine” by Miami-native Mickey de Grand IV is a deep and soulful new production from the Psychic Mirrors and Amnisia label-head: a smoothed-out ballad drenched in reverberating rhythms with equal elements of yacht rock/AOR, boogie-funk and wavy synth-jazz.

Sometimes I feel phony,
Staring at you in the park.
Sigh too loud and you turn around,
now I'm just looking at your dog.
Alright, I'm a man, I'm a manatee;
float to you baby all night long.
Give it to you right you give me a reason,
know you're my setting sun.
Me and Suzie feeling groovy down in Trinidad,
hot as hell and we’re on the run.
She’s a real machine, color TV dream,
glittering and a rolling stone.
Oh baby baby baby let me tongue tie you,
gonna rock and roll for fun.
Let me find you, grind you, always remind you,
I’m gonna be your only one.
I wanna tell you the last thing that I thought
I’ve been in love (it’s true) but that was long before

I’m a rock
I’m a Joe (plenty savoir fare)
I’m a star on the silver screen,
From the car I’m the smoke in the midnight air
I’m a hammer
I’m a real marine
See your eyes in the group pic
the jewel of the cruise ship
I’m drawing a line in the sand
See Freddy won’t like it,
at the pool you’re delighted cuz
I’m set upon holding your hand.
On the dock as you pose
there’s rose and you froze
it makes you shuffle down way back when
And with a little bit of nerve I text and observe
you know I'm really much more than a friend
Go on and write all day, what I got to do?
Going my own way chasing after you
Only you and I can start to set the score
I’m in love with you but that was long before
Geraldine
