Biography

This Unique Museum is the brainchild of Benjamin Fitton, mixing the gentle pace of low-fi indie rock with the ambient sound of shoe gazing dream pop.

Fitton has released a number of albums under the moniker of This Unique Museum and a handful of EPs, with the former being recorded as Chapters and later as Installments. The Chapters work on the premise that entire recording sessions are made available to the listener for free for a limited time allowing them to provide feedback as to the albums contents. This frees the artist from their own subjection and places the recording in the hands of an audience who has no current emotional or nostalgic attachment to the music. This way the selection process for the album can be viewed and chosen without interruption or bias and then hopefully the listener can feel like they have created a body of work along with the artist.
In stark contrast, the Installments feature a small number of tracks per release in which a handful of songs are picked by artists that Ben finds inspiring and reinterprets them by using the skeletal structure and building an alternative from the pieces left behind.
