Active Child - “I’m In Your Church At Night”
What do you do get when an ex-choirboy decides to write his own music and is influenced by the likes of Joy Division, New Order and Tears For Fears? Active Child, AKA Pat Grossi.
Cinematic electronic-pop music clouded with booming programming, glowing synths, and sweet harps create the groundwork for Grossi’s exquisite vocals which, with their unearthly sound and evocative lyrics, take on an enchanting, hymnal quality that would not be out of place amongst the richly colored sunlight of a church’s stained-glass interior. In a word, I find it captivating.
Active Child’s debut EP, Curtis Lane, is out June 1st on Filter Recordings.
