Album Notes

Since its inception, Telepath has been a
continuously evolving musical organism,
and no more so is this fact manifested
than on the new album “Crush”. For his 3rd
studio release, producer/multi-instrumentalist
Michael Christie recruited singers from
around the world to craft songs that are
vocally-based and hook-laden, while still
retaining Telepath’s trademark “reworld” sound.
Along with its featured vocalists (who hail from
India, Jamaica, West Africa, and the U.S.),
“Crush” also features over a dozen guest
instrumentalists -- further adding to the album’s
“global collective” aesthetic. A work that is
at once accessible and unclassifiable,
“Crush” represents a pinnacle achievement in
Michael’s career, and a new peak in the
evolution of the Telepath sound.
