Infinite Poolside

In the Infinite Poolside series I re-record full albums or mixtapes so that the listener hears them as they would sound in or at a swimming pool.

"like the all-inclusive resort of avant garde music" - Jason Doell.

"re-imagining music to sound like the bleary stereo system of a swimming pool" - Jesse Locke, AUX

Mixtapes have included Dolly Parton’s saddest songs, Taylor Swift’s 1989, David Bowie’s songs of apocalypse and discontent, Disney princesses, Chris Isaak covering “Only the Lonely” 13 times in a row, Ke$ha’s Warrior, Christian Marclay’s More Encores, DJ Screw’s Late Night Fucking Yo Bitch, The Valley of the Dolls OST, Rihanna's Anti, tween pop covers, Pool’s Closed with Jason Doell, Todd Haynes’ Superstar The Karen Carpenter Story, Infinite Bar Rock (O / L), ASMR Christmas carols, Drake's Views, REM's Nightswimming, John Cheever's The Swimmer, and a tribute to Daniel Johnston.

From March 2015 - August 2016 Infinite Poolside was a monthly radio show on TRP Radio, an underground internet radio station at College & Dovercourt in Toronto. Each show featured a new mixtape and commentary by Brigitte Bardon't. Guests included NIGHTLIFEGUARD, Struggle Girl, Jason Doell, Ciel, Kate Killet, and others.

Infinite Poolside performances and installations bring swimmer's ear to live audiences. Infinite Poolside has appeared live at The Power Plant, Invisible City, Kazoo! Fest, CHANNEL, Long Winter, Pest Fest, and various venues. In 2017 Infinite Poolside made its film debut with its re-cut of Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story.

On the Infinite Poolside blog, I write poetry about swimming pools.
