Since creating the moniker in 2016, Chris Taylor's releases as Body Meat have functioned like musical sandboxes, each very distinct from the other, with different dimensions and house rules. Enamored with multi-instrumentalist pop iconoclasts from Stevie Wonder to Ryuichi Sakamoto, the Utah-born, Maryland-raised Taylor began working in earnest on music in his early 20s, practicing instruments to find his own singular feel on them. After a musical coming-of-age period playing in art-rock bands in Denver, he set out on his own with the intention of making each of his releases sound like a new and unfamiliar landscape—a broadcast from somewhere outside of any scene or record collection.
