A graphic designer based in New Jersey at the time, Haley found a sound on his synthesizers that sparked an immediate nostalgia response, tapping into classic sci-fi and proto-electro in a way that felt early '80s in scope, but also remarkably weird - stutter-step proggy and intoxicatingly psychedelic. Unknowingly he had stepped into a genre prism; suppose we know it now as synth-wave though the tag never landed squarely. To Haley, this was a space to explore and a story to tell, which he'd do across a saga of releases that would resonate with a legion of fans and send the producer touring the world in perpetual orbit. His full-length debut on Ghostly International, Galactic Melt delivered on the promise of Haley's Cyanide Sisters EP as well as high-profile remixes for Twin Shadow, Neon Indian, and Daft Punk. Bold, imaginative, and unapologetically cosmic, the set occupies a beloved coordinate in the Com Truise catalog, considered the gateway for many. To celebrate it's 10th anniversary, Haley and Ghostly have repressed the long-sold out 2xLP and added five unreleased tracks to the expanded digital edition, giving this classic it's due treatment as it passes the milestone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrom the keyed-up, skyscraping machine love of \"VHS Sex\" and \"Cathode Girls\" to pulsing cuts like \"Air Cal\" and \"Ether Drift,\" the music on Galactic Melt is mathy, forlorn, funky, and mighty in technical ambition. That they're all noticeably cinematic is, of course, by design. Haley envisioned Galactic Melt as a \"sort of film score... from the mind,\" chronicling the life and death of Com Truise, the world's first synthetic\/robotic astronaut, from his creation and time on earth to his subsequent mission to a newly discovered galaxy called Wave 1 (released in 2014).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat \/ \u003cstrong\u003eLP Vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eReleased \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCatalog \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cstrong\u003e804297813813\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eGenre \/ \u003cstrong\u003eElectronic\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":28979239250,"sku":"ELE-C-804297813813","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/files\/804297813813.jpg?v=1794161181"},{"product_id":"b-com-truise-b-br-i-iteration-blue-white-vinyl-i","title":"Com Truise - Iteration [Blue\/White Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFormat \/ \u003cstrong\u003eLP Vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eReleased \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCatalog \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cstrong\u003e804297829609\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eGenre \/ \u003cstrong\u003ePop \/ Rock\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36484924498,"sku":"POP-C-804297829609","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/products\/39d8304cf7e162ea4f879b6403e7e577.jpg?v=1497614093"},{"product_id":"b-com-truise-b-br-i-cyanide-sisters-i","title":"Com Truise - Cyanide Sisters","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFormat \/ \u003cstrong\u003eLP Vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eReleased \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCatalog \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cstrong\u003e804297812830\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eGenre \/ \u003cstrong\u003eElectronic\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":224671399954,"sku":"ELE-C-804297812830","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/products\/611cb49b7c49ec936c41b16d68a06a44.jpg?v=1510098333"},{"product_id":"b-com-truise-b-br-i-persuasion-system-sky-blue-vinyl-i","title":"Com Truise - Persuasion System [Sky Blue Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFormat \/ \u003cstrong\u003eLP Vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eReleased \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCatalog \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cstrong\u003e804297833705\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eGenre \/ \u003cstrong\u003ePop \/ Rock\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":28535820419133,"sku":"POP-C-804297833705","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/products\/5a5f6275a09555d60ec365ece8843796.jpg?v=1558049344"},{"product_id":"b-com-truise-b-br-i-persuasion-system-i","title":"Com Truise - Persuasion System","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eFor nearly a decade the story of Com Truise has relied on science fiction and abstract fact. Seth Haley's singular style of melodic beat music subsists as hazy machinist nostalgia, a mainframe downloaded cosmology. Yet with each release, alongside sonic refinement, comes an increasingly visible vapor trail to Haley's own ontology. His long-awaited 2017 LP Iteration brought to completion a conceptual space saga while also reflecting seismic life changes for the producer and designer. With mini-LP Persuasion System, Haley leaves the past narrative behind, settling into a new period marked by change - on this planet, in the present - putting forth his most grounded and visceral work to date. The project began as an experiment. Haley switched digital audio workstations, rebuilt his palette of sounds, and tasked himself with simply trying it out. The exercise freed him of expectations and permitted a process that echoed the tones of more immediate external environments. A gravity had seeped in; resulting material shifts between bleakness and sublime suspense, awe at the expanse of existing, in looking back and letting go. \"It's a sort of sad smile and a wave goodbye but at the same time hello, a 'welcome to your life' moment,\" Haley says. Take the storm pattern sequence from \"Gaussian\" to \"Ultrafiche of You\": a queasy, contemplative vignette rests on a single soft-synth cloud before the latter's percussion ripples across the sky. With trademark stutters and swells, the composition conjures the sensation of searching in the afterglow. \"It's a love song, and I don't write many of those.\" That duality - melancholy + optimism, then + now - permeates this widescreen collection. \"Existence Schematic\" takes flight at night, \"looking down at the landscape,\" explains Haley, \"seeing the lights in a schematic sort of way, wondering who or what is looking back up at me wondering the same things I am, the impact of a single existence, the end, the beginning, where it's gone and going.\" These are observations from this existential Persuasion System, and Haley hopes the music yields more, for others, that listeners may search for their own tension and release.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat \/ \u003cb\u003eLP Vinyl\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReleased \/ \u003cstrong\u003e05\/17\/2019\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCatalogue \/ \u003cb\u003eGHOS-337\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cstrong\u003e804297833712\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGenre \/ \u003cstrong\u003eElectronic\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":28535821271101,"sku":"ELE-C-804297833712","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/products\/4a34cd30eb8a7b9f09c439bbcd061cba.jpg?v=1558049350"},{"product_id":"b-com-truise-b-br-i-in-decay-too-black-vinyl-i","title":"Com Truise - In Decay, Too [Black Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFormat \/ \u003cstrong\u003eLP Vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eReleased \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCatalog \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cstrong\u003e804297837215\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eGenre \/ \u003cstrong\u003eElectronic\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32976432332861,"sku":"ELE-C-804297837215","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/products\/79e841f36478ed720debf878bfa4a725.jpg?v=1607042184"},{"product_id":"b-com-truise-b-br-i-in-decay-too-synthetic-storm-vinyl-i","title":"Com Truise - In Decay, Too [Synthetic Storm Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFormat \/ \u003cstrong\u003eLP Vinyl\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eReleased \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCatalog \/ \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cstrong\u003e804297837208\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eGenre \/ \u003cstrong\u003eElectronic\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32976432365629,"sku":"ELE-C-804297837208","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/products\/79e841f36478ed720debf878bfa4a725_3297d6bc-dfc7-4628-bebf-ce009fbd03e2.jpg?v=1607042196"},{"product_id":"com-truise-in-decay-10775","title":"Com Truise - In Decay","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"aec-body\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-10\" id=\"aec-main\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"aec-product-container\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-xs-12\" id=\"aec-product-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"aec-desc-review collapse\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn Decay provides a fascinating alternative roadmap for the idiosyncratic journeys of New Jersey producer Seth Haley - aka Com Truise - through the history of electronic music. A compilation of unreleased, early recordings, In Decay encompasses 13 tracks that have previously been either only available as demos online or are entirely unheard tracks dating from before Haley's official releases - his debut Cyanide Sisters EP, its follow-up full-length Galactic Melt, and last year's Fairlight EP.While the '80s-influenced synth sounds, rubbery basslines and sci-fi flavors that inform Haley's later work are in full effect here, they're assembled in manners different enough to make this both a fine record in its own right, and also a fascinating insight into the development of the distinctive Com Truise sound. It also finds the producer exploring a number of facets of that sound, from 8-bit influenced experimentalism to distinctly danceable beats - often within the confines of the same track.\"Controlpop\", for instance, announces itself with an intro that sounds like a Commodore 64 being hit with a hammer, but resolves into slow liquid synthfunk that recalls Galactic Melt highlights like \"VHS Sex\" and \"Flightwave.\" Its slow-burning dance vibe is shared by several other tracks - \"Colorvision\" and \"Yxes\", amongst others - while elsewhere, Haley drops the tempo and channels the psychedelic cosmic meanderings of forebears like Tangerine Dream and Popol Vuh. \"Dreambender\" sounds like it should be soundtracking a voyage into uncharted digital innerspace, while \"Video Arkade\" cruises along on a woozy rising-and-falling synthline that's like drifting on some sort of virtual reality rollercoaster. Like all Haley's work, it's like stepping into a strange, digital parallel world - a place constructed out of sounds both immediately familiar and yet somehow rendered thoroughly fresh, and a place that's worth staying for quite some time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFormat \/ \u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLP\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReleased \/ \u003cb\u003e08\/19\/2014\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCatalogue \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGI-160\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e804297816012\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGenre \/ \u003cb\u003eElectronic\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33026842853437,"sku":"ELE-C-804297816012","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/files\/GI160_380px.jpg?v=1692132645"},{"product_id":"com-truise-iteration-204162","title":"Com Truise - Iteration","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFormat \/ \u003cb\u003eLP\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReleased \/ \u003cstrong\u003e06\/16\/2017\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCatalogue \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGI-296\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cstrong\u003e804297829616\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGenre \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectronic\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33026894463037,"sku":"ELE-C-804297829616","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/files\/804297829616_7699f137-880e-443d-b08b-14f8c10a9c0b.jpg?v=1715639340"},{"product_id":"com-truise-iteration-10436562","title":"Com Truise - Iteration on Ghostly International - Blue \/ White Vinyl","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVINYL CONDITION: Both discs are VG+.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCOVER CONDITION: VG+ (Corner bumps.)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNOTES: 2017 blue and white split pressing.

A compilation of unreleased, early recordings, In Decay encompasses 13 tracks that have previously been either only available as demos online or are entirely unheard tracks dating from before Haley's official releases - his debut Cyanide Sisters EP, its follow-up full-length Galactic Melt, and last year's Fairlight EP.While the '80s-influenced synth sounds, rubbery basslines and sci-fi flavors that inform Haley's later work are in full effect here, they're assembled in manners different enough to make this both a fine record in its own right, and also a fascinating insight into the development of the distinctive Com Truise sound. It also finds the producer exploring a number of facets of that sound, from 8-bit influenced experimentalism to distinctly danceable beats - often within the confines of the same track.\"Controlpop\", for instance, announces itself with an intro that sounds like a Commodore 64 being hit with a hammer, but resolves into slow liquid synthfunk that recalls Galactic Melt highlights like \"VHS Sex\" and \"Flightwave.\" Its slow-burning dance vibe is shared by several other tracks - \"Colorvision\" and \"Yxes\", amongst others - while elsewhere, Haley drops the tempo and channels the psychedelic cosmic meanderings of forebears like Tangerine Dream and Popol Vuh. \"Dreambender\" sounds like it should be soundtracking a voyage into uncharted digital innerspace, while \"Video Arkade\" cruises along on a woozy rising-and-falling synthline that's like drifting on some sort of virtual reality rollercoaster. Like all Haley's work, it's like stepping into a strange, digital parallel world - a place constructed out of sounds both immediately familiar and yet somehow rendered thoroughly fresh, and a place that's worth staying for quite some time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat \/ \u003cb\u003eLP\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReleased \/ \u003cb\u003e08\/19\/2014\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCatalogue \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGI-160\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e804297816012D\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eCom Truise \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGhostly International\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGenre \/ \u003cb\u003eElectronic\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43249030791229,"sku":"ELE-C-804297816012D","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/files\/GI160_380px.jpg?v=1692132645"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.plaidroomrecords.com\/collections\/artist-com-truise.oembed","provider":"Plaid Room Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
