Das has quietly been recording and performing across the United States since 2016, playing electronic guitar in shoegaze group Kraus, sometimes co-writing with Maggie Rogers, and making his own early albums that bear the bent-toothed twang of Modest Mouse, a striving formalism and regard for words. \"living in memory of something sweet\" marks his debut album under the dreamTX alias – a nod to Terisius Nash, the logic of sleep and grand southern skies.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn 2019 he made a break away from the new frontier of Texas, away from Drag City worship, and towards Woodstock, the spiritual grounds of the first great awakening. Life became swirls of density: Hudson School hues, sanded brown, pine green, bugs and heat, intensity, exercise, and working himself up mountains. Real freedom and aloneness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is where he recorded most of the album. During the process of this he devised a new way of thinking about songs, mapping their structures according to the linearity of an out-and-back trail system wherein you traverse new ground, sounds, and melodies for half the song, and then retrace those same parts in reverse, but through a re-tinkered, degraded lens, where there’s recognizable elements from before (a musical phrase, a chord), but re-contextualized in new spaces (magnified or pushed into the distance, crunched, mangled, or echoing and smeared together... ) to create a progressive arrangement out of the same materials, like patchwork of Japanese boro.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Redeye","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43687444578502,"sku":"5056340106877","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1377\/6983\/files\/201374937499.jpg?v=1715288419","url":"https:\/\/www.shugarecords.com\/products\/dreamtx-living-in-memory-of-something-sweet-new-lp-record-2024-hit-the-north-opaque-silver-vinyl-indie-pop-shoegaze","provider":"Shuga Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
