Description
What we're talking about now, is now. How long is now? Remote Control is the debut album from New York-born and based artist JJ Weihl, originally released in 2020 and reissued five years on. Built of drum machines, vocoder, sound collage, theremin, and electric guitar, Remote Control reconfigures the language of mass-produced electronics into a form of cybernetic pop. Rather than chase glossy innovation, Weihl reshapes the keyboard preset and drum machine default into something equally nostalgic and synthetic, accessible and experimental. A meditation on our contradictory moment in history, the album reflects on identity, perception, and mediation through sound and image. Live visuals and music videos extend this inquiry, weaving together green screen, YouTube ephemera, vacation footage, and 3D renderings. Adorned with a holographic key, Remote Control plays with the idea of what it means to be real-both a surface and the space it seems to contain.
