Morr Music - Style

Style

The label's style of music stems from the hybridization of electronica and indie or shoegazer rock. Generally speaking, artists on this label combine these elements in a way that can appeal to pop, dance, and rock fans alike. The shoegazing sound is represented here through the deployment of pop-rock melodies buried under layers of digital signal processing effects, such as distortion and reverb. Many music journalism sites reference bands such as My Bloody Valentine, Cocteau Twins, and Slowdive when reviewing Morr Music releases. A perfect testament to this overlap in styles is the Morr Music two-disc compilation album Blue Skied an' Clear, which contains a full disc of artists reworking Slowdive tracks in the style of electronica typically associated with Morr Music.

Famous quotes containing the word style:

    “As the style of Faulkner grew out of his rage—out of the impotence of his rage—the style of Hemingway grew out of the depth and nuance of his disenchantment.”
    —Wright Morris (b. 1910)

    “To translate, one must have a style of his own, for otherwise the translation will have no rhythm or nuance, which come from the process of artistically thinking through and molding the sentences; they cannot be reconstituted by piecemeal imitation. The problem of translation is to retreat to a simpler tenor of one’s own style and creatively adjust this to one’s author.”
    —Paul Goodman (1911–1972)

    “I am so tired of taking to others
    translating my life for the deaf, the blind,
    the “I really want to know what your life is like without giving up any of my privileges
    to live it” white women
    the “I want to live my white life with Third World women’s style and keep my skin
    class privileges” dykes”
    —Lorraine Bethel, African American lesbian feminist poet. “What Chou Mean We, White Girl?” Lines 49-54 (1979)
