“Hi, I’m Dr. Eric Elbogen.” (actor portrayal, not actually a doctor). “I created Endless Wonder for one reason: to make the world a less weary place.” Since founding Say Hi labs in 2002, Elbogen and his team of slightly flawed and persistently-flat clones have been proving to humanity that synthesizer music doesn’t have to lack a sense of humor and that drum machines can still swing and shuffle like the jazz great ones. But it wasn’t until the team began working on Endless Wonder in late 2011, when all rock and roll bands were required to trade in their Warlock guitars for step sequencers and self-oscillating sweepable low pass filters, that they knew they were on the brink of something crucial: the probable savior of humankind itself.

Say Hi isn’t for everyone. Those with chronic back pain shouldn’t listen to Say Hi, as they may find it difficult to avoid boogie-woogie-ing until the cows come home. Similarly, those with obnoxious Yelp accounts and haters in general should avoid Say Hi, lest another human being might actually glimpse you having a good time.

Say Hi is just coming off of a 6 week tour with the Australian band Big Scary. He danced and played new songs off of Endless Wonder to tons of fans who couldn’t keep their booties standing in one place.

"Such A Drag points to a more bombastic release. Moving from brittle drums and glaring synths to sections of skronky guitars it goes all over the map while still keeping a tight structure." - Stereogum / Track Premiere
