{"product_id":"standing-on-the-corner-sotc-ii-lp-vinyl","title":"Standing On The Corner – SOTC II","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"relix-editorial\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRooted in the same restless downtown energy that once animated no-wave lofts and late-night cipher sessions, Standing On The Corner has built a devoted following precisely because their music resists easy packaging. SOTC II arriving on vinyl is itself an event, given the collective's history of releasing work in ways that reward the paying-attention crowd.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in Brooklyn, NY, STANDING ON THE CORNER (est. 2015) is a music recording group whose output moves mercurially between composition, performance, film, installation, social work, and sound. Rooted in the cultural exchange between the U.S.A., Puerto Rico, and Africa, the project machinates an intersection between soul, punk, salsa, doowop, jazz, funk, the avant-garde, and rap traditions, filtered through a distinctly New York City sensibility.The ensemble's practice is characterized by a mischievous alliance with ephemerality, lived experience, and site-specific signification with works often distributed unexpectedly and within limited physical windows. This emphasis on transience and communal memory remains central to the project's ethos.On SOTC \"\"II\"\" the New York outfit channels said philosophy into a 15-track album recorded by bandleader Gio Escobar and core collaborators Jack \"\"Wacko\"\" Nolan, Buz \"\"Man-man\"\" Donald, and Clérida \"\"Ca$h Clay\"\" Eltimé. The result is a tense, genre-defacing record that exists between fried psychedelia, rock-n-roll, no-wave rap, r\u0026amp;b, and post-hardcore energy; a mirror to a national moment of searching for meaning\/nothing\/sounds\/silence\/creation\/or destruction, through an overarching instability, alienation, decline, and refusal.Collaborators include: The Warlockettes, Ladybug Mecca, Styles P, Bubba Dupree, Claudette Ortiz, Sonia Sanchez, Solange, Danny Brown\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen=\"\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1. Will it ever be the same?
