Originally beginning as a participatory-exploratory music ethnography project in Urbana, IL in late 2007, Shor was born out of collaborations between some of the artists off Tape Records Inc. Shor's recordings are free-form and experimental, generally employing the use of synthesizers and drum machines but are not necessarily limited to any kind of instrumental or sonic constraints. Many of the recordings Shor has created thus far could be considered to fall somewhere along the lines of experimental techno, but assigning a genre to Shor would defeat the purpose of the conception it represents in the first place.
