Sam Gendel - DRM - Vinyl LP

2021

 The follow-up to his Nonesuch debut, Satin Doll, released earlier this year, DRM features Gendel's solo musical experiments with vintage instruments such as a forty-year-old Electro Harmonix DRM32 drum machine, antique synthesizers, and a sixty-year-old nylon-string guitar-accompanied by his voice. While Satin Doll was a futuristic homage to classic jazz, DRM includes just one cover song: Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road," which Gendel interprets as an instrumental, playing the melody on an old German analogue synthesizer.
