“On haha, no worries, Lubalin mines an overlooked vein of experience, the everyday interactions and off-the-cuff communications we toss back and forth with little thought—presenting a series of emotionally raw but meticulously crafted observations with a wry sense of humour and a gleeful disregard for convention. Blending pop-leaning drum & bass influences, 2000s-era electro-pop, indie, and alt. Rock, the Montreal-based artist/producer juxtaposes urgent, sometimes frenetic rhythms and vocal loops against deceptively laid-back vocals and instrumental tracks that rely heavily on the duality that informs his music and life, and find him blurring the line between child-like wonder and decidedly adult self-doubt, often in a single line. Duality is a hallmark of his lyrical preoccupations throughout haha, no worries and a driving force on every project he’s undertaken—from the phenomenally successful internet drama videos that catapulted him to fame in 2020 to his work with producer Jason Brando and Charlotte Cardin on Cardin’s double JUNO Award-winning 2023 album, 99 Nights; which earned Lubalin a pair of 2024 JUNO nominations for Producer and Songwriter of the Year. The result is a collection of songs that depend on a rare variety of musical magic. Not the garden-variety, sleight of hand of a one-size-fits-all love song—the rarer, real-world variety essential to the trick of navigating the highs and lows of modern life that you can draw on every day.”
