Residue

“I’ve been listening to Amy X Neuburg’s ‘Residue’… I think I’m in love. Neuburg is a new kind of multi-threat composer, a wonder of sampling, overdubbing, electronic manipulation… a fabulous singer. Exhilarating originality.” — Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel

Buy: Other Minds, CD Baby, amazon, itunes

Residue (2004) comprises meticulously arranged studio versions of Amy’s earliest ‘avant-cabaret’ performance pieces for voice, electronic drums and live looping electronics.

Other Minds Records says: “A cross-over artist defying definition, Amy twists multiple musical styles together into something all her own — from cabaret and hard rock to classical. Her wildly inventive lyrics range from the poignant to the absurd, touching on social and political issues in surprisingly personal ways… all intertwined with samples, loops and layers galore. With her unique performance style and riveting stage presence, Amy was a crowd-wower at last year’s Other Minds Festival 9 at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco.”

Released 2004 on Other Minds Records and distributed through Naxos.

Overheard....

“Wow! That was the one simple word that best described the one-woman musical hurricane that was Amy X Neuburg last night. If diversity, creativity, and flat-out ability were all crimes, Neuburg would have been locked up years ago.”

— Otago Daily Times, New Zealand

Residue in the press
.
electro-music.com: "Electro-diva extraordinaire Amy X Neuburg's new release is marvelous... Neuburg is a classically trained vocalist, a composer, an electronic musician, a poet, and an entertainer. Her music covers a tremendous range of styles... Very experimental, but always under total control... Amy's voice is magnificent."
.
Clouds & Clocks (Italy): "Neuburg's aesthetic is without a doubt one of the most original and stimulating that I had the pleasure to encounter in the last decade... A technically prodigious voice that's also versatile and extremely personal... It's an extremely beautiful record starting from the first listening session... 'Finally Black' is immediately captivating (I'm talking about holding one's breath, etc.)."
.
Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel: "I've been listening to Amy X Neuburg's 'Residue'... I think I'm in love. Neuburg is a new kind of multi-threat composer... a wonder of sampling, overdubbing, electronic manipulation of live sound and beat patterns... exhilarating originality. Nobody else sounds like Amy X." 
.
All Music Guide: "Amazing voice and seemingly unlimited creativity. Neuburg weaves her very own world, filled with ironic pop gestures, witty lyrics, and gripping vocal acrobatics."
