CR&M’s latest track, “Slowlyslowly,” captivates with its pulsing synth tones and harmonic layers. The song begins with a serene foundation of bell-like melodies, gradually evolving into a crunchy downtempo drum loop that propels the track forward. As the rhythm shifts, glitching elements add a unique flourish, before the track gracefully returns to its foundational tones, providing a rich and dynamic listening experience.
This eclectic trio blends atmospheric soundscapes with dreamlike harmonies, intricate melodies, and subtle beats painted on a cinematic canvas. CR&M’s music journey began in their late teens, playing gigs around Camden’s now largely long-gone venues. After a decade-long hiatus, the boredom of lockdown reignited their creative spark. Reconnecting through text messages, they began exchanging musical skits, which gradually evolved into their current sound.
Armed with home recording technology and drawing from diverse musical influences—classical, ambient, Nordic, drone, rock, jazz, and folk—CR&M’s music has matured into a unique and unpredictable path. Their tracks often start with a rusty old piano or acoustic guitar, layered with classic synths, foley sounds, and cut-up vocals. CR&M’s Instagram showcases visuals that complement their music, emphasizing their commitment to creating art for the love of it, not for fame or fortune. Their goal is to share their music widely, hoping it brings relaxation and inner peace to listeners.
