￥Jarell Perry, better known as Yore, can cut through the noise with a single vocal tic, melody, or well-timed breath. He got his start singing in the church, and his style is firmly rooted in these same epiphanic hymns. No matter his audience, he’s able to transmit an emotional truth with his voice, which somehow effortlessly carries his hope, sorrow, joy, love, and everything between.

 

His sample pack is a crystalline capture of Perry’s raw vocal power, determined but delicate, vulnerable even at full volume. We recorded his performance at Aura Studios in Brooklyn with a simple signal chain. We ran a Bock 47 microphone through an Avedis Audio Ma5 pre-amp and Tubetech CL1B. We left some of the loops and one-shots raw, and used VocalSynth to layer and lace the rest.

 

These sounds will be welcome anywhere, from the chill spot to the church potluck to the chart tops.
