The Alexander Technique is the new album by Rex Orange County. This project was entirely produced by Rex himself, in collaboration with his longtime collaborators Teo Halm (Rosalia, SZA, Beyoncé), Jim Reed, and James Blake. The Alexander Technique is named after a therapeutic practice that treats back pain to resolve deeper health issues. It is an appropriate title for Rex's album: what began as a simple exercise aimed at changing his way of writing became his most intimate and open album. By framing his music with a raw blend of R&B and indie folk, while retaining the orchestral richness that has become his trademark, The Alexander Technique marks the beginning of Act Two of Rex Orange County's career. A new chapter where he fully reveals himself, regardless of the pain it might cause. "The Alexander Technique is really a look into my own mind and my experiences over the past few years — it's almost a diary," he explains. Longer than any other project he has ever made and musically more varied, The Alexander Technique was created over several years, started before and finished after the album ''WHO CARES?'' released in 2022. Listening to it feels like watching an artist grow in real time and confront all the pains that accompany that path.
