Census Designated is the second album by American producer and singer-songwriter Jane Remover, released via deadAir records on October 20th, 2023. The album was preceded by the release of its lead single, "Lips", on August 23, 2023, and was announced on the same day. Initial ideas for Census Designated were written and recorded just weeks after Frailty’s release, but took 18 months to perfect. During their first trip across America, Jane collected ambience and experience that texturized the embryo of Census Designated. Jane says that a central inspiration for the new music came from an extremely dangerous drive in blizzard conditions, which led them to late night respite in John Day, Oregon. They state: “It was kind of like a reality check. I am painfully self aware, and it leads me to ruin like 90% of the experiences and memories I make. So I guess going through a near death experience made me want to stop ruining things for myself.” The album was made in both studios and at home–with recordings from Studio North (Kensington in Philadelphia) mixes from Kayla Reagan, and mastered by Hector Vega. A photo of Jane standing bareback while facing away towards the high plains serves appropriately as the cover art for an album where they manage to simultaneously divulge their most confessional moments yet, and captivate with unanswerable questions.
