Album created with moonlight by Geologist & Kyle Simon
In the landscape of experimental music, Brian Weitz, known to fans as Geologist, has been charting a uniquely luminous course in 2026. Far from resting on established ground, Weitz has embraced a creative trajectory that feels less like a timeline and more like a cosmic journey, weaving celestial themes directly into the fabric of his sound.
The year has been a whirlwind of sonic exploration. In January, Geologist took the plunge into solo artistry, releasing his first-ever solo album, Can I Get A Pack Of Camel Lights? This release immediately set a tone for the unconventional, introducing listeners to a sound that seems to reflect the ethereal glow of the night sky.
But the journey did not end there. Weitz quickly expanded his creative orbit by launching Croz Boyce, a dynamic duo partnership with fellow Animal Collective member Avey Tare. Their debut LP, which arrived in May, solidified their unique blend of sound, showcasing a collaborative vision that is as boundless as the moon itself.
This latest enterprise demonstrates a truly singular approach to music creation. It is an endeavor that steps outside conventional boundaries, inviting listeners to experience soundscapes illuminated by the light from the moon. This exploration is not just about composition; it is about using the celestial backdrop to define a wholly new musical language.
As Geologist continues to evolve his work, the focus remains on pushing the boundaries of what sound can be. The ongoing projects reveal a commitment to integrating these vast, mysterious themes into his artistic output, promising further explorations into the mysteries of the cosmos through his music.
