Stomp Box Choir are a new collective formed by longtime friends and collaborators Howsie (producer) and Joe Stratton (songwriter), who have won our hearts with their recently shared single, “Slow Burning Memory.”
The track harnesses a 90s blend of trip hop and a synth pop blend that has a really hypnotic atmospheric groove and production, led by a gorgeous vocal performance that has an airy and floaty characteristic to it. There is a cinematic widescreen nature that is paired with a reflective state of being and dreaminess that puts the mind and soul far at ease.
Or as they put it:
Slow Burning Memory began with a single drum sample; its visceral, looping energy creating an introspective, almost paranoid trance – especially when set against the piano and bass. Like its title, the track burns slowly, with instruments dropping in and out to build suspense and restraint. This is our second release and continues the late-night downtempo direction of our debut, Magnifier.
