Creative Audio Laboratory Shares Debut EP Sincerely Yours alongside “25 Years from Now” Single and Video

“This is Wonky Pop at its finest” - Tim Burgess

“70s soft rock, delivered by an alien” - Jason Falkner

Creative Audio Laboratory is sharing new single “25 Years from Now” on May 12 via Weirdo Music Forever Records. The latest track and video are CAL’s fifth and final single from the 2022/2023 audio-visual project and debut CAL EP Sincerely Yours (also available on all platforms May 12).

With adventures in Los Angeles, Tijuana, Rosarito, La Rumorosa, and even outer space, the ongoing audiovisual CAL saga ventured further and further away from the artist’s Southern California starting point. Finally, this song and video cycle is concluding where it all started — home.

As with the previous four releases, pop music legend Jason Falkner is once again responsible for all production, recording, arranging, and mixing duties in addition to his signature masterful performance contributions. And just like the previous four singles, “25 Years from Now ” was tracked at Falkner’s Rhetoric Studio in Echo Park.

On the visual side, Angel Estrada Fuentes (Tesoro Audiovisual) and his talented team reunited with CAL to create the “25 Years from Now” video, following their award-winning work with CAL on music videos “You Don’t Need a Reason” and “Eggshells”, as well as the “A Matter of Time”. This fifth CAL video is all the more special in that it features Jason Falkner. Staying esthetically consistent and on the same psychedelic wavelength, UK visual artist Russell Hardman is the talent behind the CAL cover artwork.

Tim Burgess had this to say about CAL and the lattes single and video, “25 Years from Now”:

“CAL knows good things, filtering the sensitive side of Todd Rundgren (‘Tiny Demons’) [and] Beefheart  - ‘My Head Is My Only House When It Rains’. Chops earned from being in a touring troupe with Gary Wilson, all recordings produced by Jason Falkner and a video directed by Angel Estrada Fuentes. This is ‘wonky’ pop at its finest.”

Anders Michael offers the following insight into the video for “25 Years from Now”:

“I originally thought I would only be working with Angel [Estrada Fuentes] and the Teroso Audiovisual team for one video — ‘You Don’t Need a Reason’. I was so delighted with how that video turned out, though, that I immediately started speaking with Angel about doing more work together. We following up with videos for ‘Eggshells’ and ‘A Matter of Time’, and it was crucial for me that we conclude this group of music videos with his Tesoro team.

From the very beginning, Angel thoroughly and intuitively understood and contributed greatly to the CAL concept, and the ‘25 Years from Now’ video feels like the perfect conclusion to CAL’s maiden voyage.

CAL’s Anders Michael offers the following insights into collaborating with Jason Falkner on Sincerely Yours and his appearance in the “25 Years from Now” music video:

“I’ve spoken extensively about how natural, inspiring, and fun it was working with Jason this EP. He knew what I was going for the immediately upon receiving my first demos, and we never looked back or ever had to reevaluate what what we were going for with these songs. ‘25 Years from Now’ —like all five tracks on the Sincerely Yours EP embodies genuine passion for classic pop songwriting’s characteristics with its lyrics, melody, and chords, but crucially also an ever-so-slight left-of-sensibility that I call ‘subtle psychedelia.’ As Jason so aptly once described our CAL m.o., it is indeed ‘70s soft rock, delivered by an alien.’

On the visual side of things, I’m overjoyed that Jason was able to be in the music video for '25 Years from Now’ — it just works on so many levels. Not only is he one of the crucial components of what this project has become, but he is also someone I consider a friend and someone with whom I share so many common interests. As fanciful and fun as the video is, it really does capture our kinship, as well as reenforcing that this creative journey has come full circle.”
