Dawn Chorus

Released in 2019, Dawn Chorus represents the creative peak of Jacques Greene's exploration into 'emotional club music.' Following his debut 'Feel Infinite,' this sophomore effort sees Greene expanding his palette by collaborating with a wide range of artists including Cadence Weapon, Clams Casino, and Julianna Barwick. The album was recorded across several cities, including London and Berlin, which contributes to its cosmopolitan, transient feel. Critics from AllMusic and Pitchfork praised the album for its technical sophistication and its ability to evoke specific, complex moods that transcend simple genre labels. The record is notable for its use of the 'dawn chorus' metaphor - the period when birds begin to sing at daybreak - mirroring the album's thematic focus on new beginnings and the clarity of the morning. The inclusion of a massive remix suite in the expanded version highlights the album's deep roots in the global electronic community, featuring reworks from Nathan Micay and Fort Romeau that further explore the source material's versatility.
