‘Dopeless Hope Feen’ is a true masterpiece of creativity. This eleven-song collection has an intense amount of verity and emotional essence. This is the album that the element66 fans have been waiting for.
The last few years have been dark times for Chad Hamlin and Kenneth Fisher, at least as far as element66 is concerned. After a falling out, the two one-time band mates went their separate ways. Chad went on his adventure with LooNurGooSe, and Kenny continued to write new material in hopes that element66 would once again be reunited.
“I’ve released a ton of LooNurGooSe music since the last element66 album (Voodoo Doll) was released in 2015, but I’m really excited to be working with Kenny again on new element66 material.”
Chad has spent nearly six years producing and releasing a total of eleven LooNurGooSe albums from 2016 to 2021.
“Making all the LooNurGooSe music was a lot of fun. I just decided to let go of any restrictions I had put on myself with song writing and let the songs write themselves. Some of my releases were a bit abstract and crazy, but I needed to let my creativity run wild. After releasing eleven LooNurGooSe albums, I felt the time was right to reach out to Kenny and reconnect. I had really missed working with him, and I knew that 2021 was the time for us to reunite and re-launch element66. I felt the world was ready for element66 to re-emerge on the music scene. Working together again just felt like the right thing to do, all the signs kept pointing both of us in that direction.”
Chad and Kenny found the event horizon of forgiveness when they reconciled the paradigm of their friendship. Voices from the Universe were speaking loud and clear to each of them independently. Strangely after not speaking to each other in years, they both sent the other a letter without knowing the other had done the same the very same week. Talking about synchronicity. After working through some of their past issues, they decided that element66 was meant to be reunited. They instantly jumped back into the project with a new sense of purpose. Their first new album in six years is now available.
