GoGo Penguin, the Manchester trio who inspirationally blend jazz, classical and electronic influences, released their most recent album, Necessary Fictions in June 2025 on XXIM Records. It finds pianist, Chris Illingworth; bassist, Nick Blacka; and drummer, Jon Scott digging deep internally to create their boldest music to date, incorporating modular synths, Moog Grandmother, and electric bass into their sound more than ever before as they glide spectacularly from acoustic instrumentation into electronica with drums to the fore. On January 23rd, they shared the powerful new song Call To The Void the title track from their new EP, with the tunes incessant anthemic groove taking its inspiration from from the darker, untamed side within us all.
