more eaze / claire rousay: No Floor
Briefly

Texan artists Claire Rousay and Mari Maurice, also known as more eaze, create innovative music that merges lo-fi experimentalism with pop influences. Their earlier albums explored personal experiences, particularly related to their identities as trans women. In their latest work, "no floor," they present an instrumental exploration of their friendship, using collaged electro-acoustic sounds to evoke memories of shared venues and bars. This album stands as a testament to their unique artistic voice, offering a rich listening experience that feels both personal and expansive, highlighting their evolving sound and collaboration.
Their collaborations marked by marriages of lo-fi experimentalism and pop standards, irreverent humor, and restless genre-hopping.
Their first album together explored their experiences growing up in San Antonio and coming out as trans women through a shifting morass of field recordings.
Their latest collaboration, no floor, is another left turn: an instrumental record built around collaged electro-acoustic sounds that tells the story of their friendship.
Once you picture the pair in action, no floor becomes a moving illustration of what it's like for close friends to make very niche music.
