about

I suppose this is as close to a pop record as I'm able to write. While my music as Chuter generally centres on heavy repetition and copious reverb, I wanted to push back against these habits on this one. That meant writing these tracks, then conducting several editing passes where I hacked away at them: dialling back the echo, cutting 16 bars to 4 etc. It's mostly electronic too – I only recorded a couple of guitars, just as with my 2021 EP "In Orbit".

The fact that "Squished" still contains plenty of repetition and reverb speaks to the fact that certain habits are irrepressible. The record is ultimately about that tension: between the sprawl of our inner world and how our public manifestation often demands a retraction our outer edges.

Written mostly over a set of nightshifts, April 2023.

Finished up, mixed and mastered April – July 2023.
