muzak | emote | lomography | linksuh | Blog Emote: The Carpet Behind. Who is he? Is he a he? Yes, of course he is. He is a team of one. Legion of his own. A band without members. A concept without idea. Exaggerated beyond the good graces of what has been bestowed uponst him. He is not a musician. He is not a composer. Conductor, maybe. But not quite. He is an arranger of sounds. He is a manipulator of others' works in the effort to create what is unique. He is bad, he is good, he is great, he's bad again, then wow, spectacular. Emote: The Carpet Behind creates a sound like many others, yet different upon it's own inception. It's part drum 'n' bass, part ambiance, part electronica, part acid jazz, part kitsch, and part pop-culture. It's 100% original, except the fact that many of the samples included were created by others.... Biographical Invoice of Emote: The Carpet
