Christ.

Real Name:
Chris Horne
Profile:
"From an early age Christ. has been a musician. His supposed collaborations in his formative years at school and early 20s are well documented, suffice to say that at the current point in time, determining the original source of cross-pollinated styles is futile. Since his first solo release proper in 2002, he has proved to be as individual and creative as the next guy, forging a unique path of musical beauty that escapes derivation. His expert layers of melody, broken beats and textures say pretty much everything, and along with his popularity as a formidable live act, he is a rare breed indeed..."

Review by noviellion Dec 17, 2005 (edited over 3 years ago)
With all due respect, Christ's earlier involvement in BOC is probably creates the buzz that attracts more attention to what he has to offer. And offer he does. He has the same vibe as Boards but exudes a much more of an experimental level in song construction. Psychedelia soundscapes with lo-fi/digital hybrid textures, and those familiar signature triplet organ riffs to boot. Makes me wonder who coined them first, he or the other two guys from Boards? A great example of Benbecula's roster of artistry. Kudos!
