The podcast Shoop is the transcription of a performance score, initially performed at the concert space of Romantso, Athens in 2019. It puts a magnifying glass on backing vocalists and the work that is required by them on stage, by detaching them from the lead singer and the solos. Containing analysis and interviews by people who performed it, or watched it. It draws elements from soul, hip hop and dance music and touches upon the phenomenon of the pop hit which forms a song vocabulary deeply rooted in collective consciousness. Performing these parts as loops, the musical objects turn into subjects and thus occurs an interesting reclaiming of the human voice as well a space reclaiming in reference to club culture history. In the course of the podcast a space emerges where one can re-listen/ re-learn songs one has always known, exploring a fresh look at sharing and perceiving music.That singing is inexperienced yet autonomous and liberated rendition of these song riffs suggests that it is not in technique rather than in good humor and unison that this core of completion must be sought out.
