About This Item
We've been jokingly referring to A Collection as Claire Rousay's Greatest Hits.Inch Over the last four or five years, Rousay's made a lot of music - frankly, it can be hard to know where to start. A Collection is our attempt to showcase her music prior to a softer focus - an origin primer, beginning with her recordings as a solo drummer and the ensuing transition into musique concrete/new music composer. A Collection clocks in at about two hours and fifteen minutes and boasts thirteen songs, split over two CDs. Rousay selected her favorite drumming cuts to fill the first CD and did the same with musique concrete/new music for the second. On disc one, scattershot, frenetic percussion compositions like InchAll,Inch InchTusk,Inch and InchGood SetInch share space with more constant drumming pieces like InchVirulence.Inch Disc two often maintains the use of percussion, but even at the outset on InchThings I Doubt You'd Care About,Inch we hear Rousay's vocals - sometimes spoken, sometimes whispered. We begin to find light melodic content, a shrill drone frequency, her now-staple field recordings, and voice-to-text like on InchI'm Not A Bad Person.Inch Want to find where Claire Rousay begins?
