 ‘Starchris’ sees Body Meat (real name Christopher Taylor) weaving his sugar-coated production wizardry with deeply soulful vocal performances and kaleidoscopic percussion.
 Across 13 tracks, he explores the roughest edges of R&B, IDM, club music, experimental pop, trap, footwork and metal, only to soften them into something remarkably warm and welcoming, finding catharsis amongst chaos.
 With this record, ‘Body Meat’ embarks on a multi-dimensional endeavour, partly influenced by the interwoven and complex world-building found in role playing video games. Taylor imagines each song as its own distinct ‘level’, and himself as the avatar moving through an immersive storyline. In its totality, ‘Starchris’ evokes both the exhilaration and the emotional challenges that are part of any long, transformative journey.
 This record follows a string of acclaimed EP releases that earned Body Meat early profiles with Pitchfork, Clash, Fact Mag and more.
 CD housed in a digisleeve wallet.
 Double LP set pressed on black vinyl, housed in a single sleeve jacket with printed inner sleeves featuring credits and photo.
