The Low End is a project by Pennsylvania indie folk songwriter, Greg Meadows. The project idea came from the desire to escape the inundation of perfect-timing, computer-generated chord progression, pitch-corrected, digital-synthesized, electronic music tracks flooding our collective ears, eyes, and consciousness. In the age of modern music, the inescapable truth is that computer programs and "producers" are aggressively shoving track after track into the world containing little, and most often, no humanization. The Low End began as a single question: "are there people out there that still want to hear acoustic music played by an actual person on a real instrument?" To answer the question, The Low End set out to write, self-record, self-produce, and publish an album made entirely on a Tascam 246 cassette tape four-track. The Low End's heartfelt acoustic music emphasizes song and emotion over hi-fidelity and produced-perfectionism. The collection of songs on the Low End's upcoming EP, The 246 Tapes, are raw and real in their imperfection, and an open invitation to a temporary departure from our modern digital existence (yes, we appreciate the irony that you pretty much have to listen to it on a digital platform ((but we are planning to release a limited run of cassettes))).
