Hilarious! Is the second single taken from Laggard’s debut album, “7 Signs You Are Dating A Narcissist”, a project that sits somewhere at the intersection of experimental electronic music and left-field club culture. Framed by the artist as “an electronic/experimental music project by a reluctant songwriter,” the record balances compositional intent with emotional unease. It is electronic music more concerned with texture, tension, and atmosphere than with traditional song structure.
The project’s origins trace back to a musical education that began with drums at the age of eight. A formative encounter watching a jungle DJ perform at a skatepark in Totnes redirected that trajectory toward electronic production. By eleven, Laggard had traded the drum kit for a DAW, drawn less to rhythmic propulsion than to the spatial and emotional potential of sound design.
