Release Notes:
In a basement under a commercial development in downtown Hamilton, Ontario Aron
DÆAlesio set to work each night. Removed from distractions and almost invariably
alone he would settle in, focusing on minute details as he tinkered, intent on
managing each aspect of performance and tone as he meticulously fit the
interlocking layers of his arrangements together piece by piece. Despite working
as a musician - writing, recording, and touring with the band Young Rival -
since he was barely out of high school, it was the first time DÆAlesio had
explored music making outside of a collaborative context, and
counter-intuitively, working in isolation in a windowless room at a time when
most of the world is asleep had a way of dissipating what had been a mounting
sense of alienation he had been feeling was a by product of his creative work.
The unusual sonic quality of his debut album is likely the result of a degree of
naivete that DÆAlesio brought to the recording process, in combination with an
interesting collection of influences that creep in and out of the songwriting
and the arrangements. There are moments that recall the faraway quality of early
Everly Bros or Ink Spots recordings, the kitchen sink, lo-fi experimentalism of
Thought for Food-period The Books, the driving minimalism of Suicide, and the
muted grandeur of The WalkmenÆs early records, but for DÆAlesio, who is almost
reflexively humble, there was little thought to the elements that shaped the
record outside of the basement where it was made, as he focused instead on his
own process, and finding his way towards what felt natural.
