PERPETUAL CARE is the Studio & Design portfolio of Music Producer and Club Performer, Joel Eel
Korean-Canadian artist and Forth collective label manager Joel Eel presents his new album “Performing a Crime” - self-released on September 14th.
Performing A Crime is a concept of how being in love, can feel criminal in and of itself. It is the observation of how two people intimately in love, exchanging a conversation that can result in misunderstanding — emotions become reactionary and eventually overpower the positive motive of one’s intent.
The emotional exchange of tenderness one day, can be ultimately forgotten or destroyed the next. All loving — expressive ideas no longer resonate -- can be distorted by emotions. Social media takes its part; simplifying complex expressions — such as how the act of unfollowing can be interrupted as an opposition of perpetual care.
The album recieved international press and visibility on various music channels: DJ Mag, Inverted Audio, Paper Magazine, Red Bull Radio, Resident Advisor, Noods Radio, Exclaim and Now Magazine.
