MASS CHOIR - 90's Inspired



A few months ago, I came across another artist I used to ride the bus with, Matt Skopyk. He's a bit older than me, so I've ALWAYS looked up to him, especially since he was in the artistic programs of high school that I gravitated towards as well. At some point, reverence follows talent more than age; but in high school, it's easier to recognize the latter. Now I recognize the talent, as do members of our current community, Edmonton.

In September, Mass Choir was named SONiC's Band of the Month, which brought the band a bit more face time out there, but they're definitely ready for more. Although not produced in the 90's, their sound is - as Matt explains in the video - reminiscent of those dance mixes we heard in our childhoods, but with a modern beat pounding throughout. You can't here that so much in this live version, but check out their video on vimeo:
