'Existential' is described by Carter Fox as a feature length audio film in 3 acts: Act 1 - Apocalypse Nu; Act 2 - Day Tripper; and Act 3 - Starchild, with each segment running about 30 minutes in length. Each act takes the listener on a different journey, defying genres and labeling and creating a collection of music that cannot be categorized into one name.

Apocalypse Nu acts as the introduction to the adventure, and introduces the listener to a dark and fearsome world ravaged by war, natural disasters, and man made fury. As the listener dives more into the music, they find themselves entering into more open and responsive tones.

Act 2 is Day Tripper, a spiritual collection of psychedelic electronic jazz elements mixed with live horn sections and the occasional chip tune and wobble.

Through the confidence gained during the Day Tripper venture, the listener enters the final Act, Starchild, a futuristic production that revisits classic styles of music combined with future elements.


'Existential' was recorded over a three year period in Philadelphia, PA, and Brooklyn, NY. Carter Fox describes the process of creating this album as "liberating and fun. I had the opportunity to let loose on my emotions without question and create pieces of music that are actually pieces of me captured in musical form."

Carte Fox is a bassist and producer from Philadelphia, PA.
