Ah, CQ(bq) is an alias that I'm not even sure I can find enough things to talk about. Well, it first started with "Off The Charts", CQ(bq)'s first and most important album. It was supposed to be a bootleg vinyl version of "AuditoryStaleDonerTenCupsOfAyranAndABoxOfRulokat".

 

The songs in it are rather distasteful, disgusting, and strange. I made it during a time when I was struggling with making "good albums" because of how high the standards were. So I thought: "You know, why not try to make a bad album instead?" And just like that, I made Off The Charts with Local Radar being the only guest feature. When I first made it, I never thought people would like it because of how bad the songs in it were, even if they were intentionally bad.

 

Then, there's that whole CQ(bq) going missing situation around when STALE04 was in production. "Subject: IMPORTANT!!!" was an awfully weird voicemail talking about how some girl mistook him for me, due to how we both look alike.

 

After that, we didn't get any updates until... Alice98 Test Records released "AuralAwfulDanmakuTenFlasksOfSakeAndABundleOfShanghaiDolls". I was shocked to see CQ(bq) submitting a couple of tracks for it, which I listed here in the selected tracks section to the left. Three songs? Yeah, just three songs.

 

And then, there's "Stale Remains". An unofficial sequel to Off The Charts, which, CQ(bq) has no involvement in. I just made it under his name for the sake of consistency. All of the tracks in it are unreleased songs by Sonic4.

 

I don't know what else to say. Hope that guy somehow comes back.
