It received acclaim from critics, and was named release of the year by British magazine The Wire.Table of ContentsBackground[edit]Critical reception[edit]Year-end lists[edit]Track listing[edit]Personnel[edit]References[edit]Background[edit]Halo recorded Quarantine between July 2011 and February 2012 primarily in her home studio, with some instrument tracks also recorded in London.[4] She made over thirty demos, eighteen of which were deleted.[4] In November 2011, Halo sent the LP demos to Hyperdub label head Steve Goodman, who responded with positive interest.[4]Initially applying extensive echo and reverb to her vocals, which she found “supremely boring”, Halo instead opted to leave them dry and unadorned, stating that “it was tempting to use autotune but I decided against it because there’s this brutal, sensual ugliness in the vocals uncorrected, and painfully human vocals made sense.”[4] Speaking to Fact, she described the album’s thematic focus as “contrails, trauma, volatile chemicals, viruses.”[4][5]The album cover features an adaptation of Harakiri School Girls, a work by Makoto Aida which Halo chose for the artwork after seeing it at an exhibition on Japanese pop art in New York.[6] She stated that “I love that it’s brutal and violent but colourful and slow to sink in.”[4]Critical reception[edit]Quarantine received positive critical reviews from critics, with an aggregate score of 80 out of 100 on Metacritic.[8]The Wire named Quarantine as the “release of the year” in its annual critics’ poll.[17] Ian Cohen of Pitchfork called the album “something definitive” and Halo’s “best and most cohesive work to date.”[13]The Quietus called it “one of this year’s most intriguing and divisive listens,” and noted that “what’s blasted her music headlong into the future is its re-integration of those most ancient of musical devices \u2013 the unadorned human voice, verse\/chorus structures \u2013 into environments they\u2019re usually so thoroughly unfamiliar with.”[18]The Guardian wrote that “it manages to sidestep pretension at almost every turn, partly due to the near-naive vocals that dominate the warm crackle and glow.”[5]Resident Advisor states “Quarantine binds her past sounds into a toxic, lush blend of ambient suspension and disorienting detail,” and called the album Halo’s “most immersive and beautiful work to date.”[14]Year-end lists[edit]YearPublicationWorkListRankRef.2012PitchforkQuarantineOverlooked Records 2012—The Best Album Covers of 2012Albums of the Year: Honorable MentionTrack listing[edit]All tracks are written by Laurel Halo.Title1.“Airsick”3:582.“Years”2:523.“Thaw”5:594.“Joy”3:275.“MK Ultra”4:176.“Wow”1:237.“Carcass”4:308.“Holoday”1:509.“Tumor”2:4010.“Morcom”3:0311.“Nerve”2:3112.“Light + Space”4:49Total length:41:19Personnel[edit]Credits adapted from the liner notes of Quarantine.[22]Laurel Halo \u2013 production, recording, mixing, vocals, Wurlitzer electric piano, Access Virus Xl, Akai Ax-60, Akai Mpc 1000, Arp 2600, Elektron Octatrack, Fender Jaguar, Korg Electribe Es-1, Korg Ms-20, Korg Monopoly, Korg Polysix, Mfb Synth Ii, Roland D-50, Roland Juno-106, Roland Sh-101, Yamaha Cs-80Zeljko McMullen \u2013 mixingJason Goz \u2013 masteringMakoto Aida \u2013 artworkKei Miyajima \u2013 photographyManuel Sepulveda \u2013 layoutReferences[edit]^ Daly, Aidan (June 26, 2017). “Dust by Laurel Halo \/ Album Review”.
