Born Gold is the high-energy, futuristic noise-pop project of San Francisco via Canada pop experimentalist Cecil Frena. Caught in a highly idiosyncratic dialogue between harsh noise, future-leaning electronic music, indie rock signifiers and mainstream pop, Born Gold (formerly Gobble Gobble) conjures stuttering, blown-out and chopped guitar peals, erratic, bubbling synth arpeggios, crunked-out, sparkling 808 hats and bursts of meticulously processed digital noise. Oh, and hooks, hooks, hooks.

Born Gold's debut LP/mixtape Bodysongs is a selected singles compilation of uncompromising and infectious danceable pop anthems. In the live context, Born Gold's highly danceable pop songs are transformed into something like an ecstatic, surreal dream sequence: bandmates bash away on pots and pans, smash shovels together, percuss on hockey helmets and generally get a party started unlike any other. Born Gold runs with Canada's shadowy futurepop collective Hovercraft (Purity Ring, Kuhrye-oo).
