about

Recorded in a friends basement over two separate 3 day recording marathons. Album named after recording process. Most Matilda albums are recorded in complete solitude, but this one was recorded in house party type settings. Many people were invited over to help or watch or drink during the 6 day process.

Most of the album content deals with heart ache/break. The songs were written in the months after my scheduled wedding day that never happened.

about

Shaun W. Detroit

Shaun W. (fka Matilda) is meant to be more of a musical documentation of life events rather than a marketable musical cash cow.

It is the mostly solo, ever changing, ongoing musical project of Shaun Wisniewski.
Songs are mostly folk-y and noisy. They also have flourishes of electronic beats, sound collage, and synth. For the most part the songs are poorly produced, and that’s fine.
