Remote Choir Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Remote Choir came together in the fall of 2016. It includes people living in different places, many of whom have never met. We sing songs that were written and originally recorded unaccompanied to dictaphone by musician and poet Jimmy Crouse. Each of these tracks evolves from Jimmy's recordings in a different way, sometimes adding voices or instrumentation, or doing nothing at all. ... more

still my favorite album of the decade. the grooves are built on spiraling repetition, yet no two moments are exactly alike. utterly mind-bending, yet dictated by thematic purpose. and it's still kept as a trim, ever-cool package, though at times the journey is so immersive it feels everlasting. Dada in a suit; a contained bubble of aesthetic perfection that moves everywhere without stopping or faltering for a second. fucking rock on \m/
