Bartees Strange: New‍ Music, creative influences, and a ‍Friendship with Jack Antonoff

Bartees Strange, ⁣the⁢ acclaimed‍ musician, recently shared insights into​ his⁢ creative process‍ and future projects while at Reading Festival. He’s currently gearing up for a new recording phase, promising a ​shift ⁢in sonic direction.

Strange revealed a fascination with ​the innovative soundscapes of Radiohead. He ⁢described discovering them through television appearances,sparking a long-term admiration.”With the TV stuff, I was like, ‘This feels like hearing Radiohead or something,'”‌ he explained. “I don’t know how they’re doing it⁤ and I have to see it.”

He plans to‌ begin recording in January, aiming for a more stripped-down approach. Strange feels⁢ he’s explored expansive production techniques and is now ready to focus on simplicity. “I’ve kinda​ done all⁢ I need to do with⁢ the big stuff,” ​he stated. “Everyone knows I can produce; I can make a thing sound cool. I’m gonna do‍ something small.”

This upcoming record will⁢ likely be⁢ a self-produced endeavor, though​ he intends to share it with a close ‌friend: Jack‌ Antonoff. Their ‍relationship has evolved beyond professional collaboration into a genuine friendship. “I’m just gonna do it how I always do it,” Strange⁢ said. “I’ll probably start it by myself.I’m definitely gonna show it⁢ to Jack, just ’cause we’re friends.”

He anticipates a collaborative, open-minded response⁢ from Antonoff.strange expects any feedback to be a⁤ springboard for further ⁤exploration. “If jack ⁢had notes,⁢ my response would be: ‘Oh, cool – let’s play with it.'”

Here’s a quick‍ look at what we know‍ about Bartees Strange’s upcoming work:

Recording‌ Timeline: January
Sonic Direction: Simple, stripped-down
Production: Primarily self-produced, with input from Jack Antonoff
Collaboration: A focus on open-minded experimentation and friendship-driven feedback.

I’ve found that artists often reach a point where they want⁢ to pare⁣ back⁣ and focus ⁣on the core ‍of their songwriting. Strange’s desire ‍to create something “small” suggests a desire for intimacy⁣ and authenticity in ⁤his next release. It’s a refreshing perspective in an era often dominated by maximalist‍ production. ‌

This new ‌direction promises a compelling chapter in ⁣Strange’s already impressive career. You can expect a record that’s both deeply personal and creatively adventurous.
