(Since then I've wondered how perfumes and cologne come into play, someone DM me if you have an answer) Now that also has me wondering if people who are aromatically incompatible ever end up dating and does it ever work out for them? Anyway you’re learning a lot about how my brain works today and I apologize for the digressions lmao. Do you think connection is something that we automatically have with people? Or is it something we can create and build upon as we develop our relationship with them?įORREST: I remember learning in a biology course that part of our attraction to others comes from our body’s sense of genetic diversity/compatibility with another, and it learns that via the natural pheromones our bodies produce. That said, environment has a huge influence on inspiration and the comfort of your adolescent bedroom (or basement) can help you lean into the most singular parts of yourself.ĬDM: You discuss never really connecting completely with someone in 'and it sounds like (ice cream)'.
Teens actually recording and writing their own songs is a pretty new thing and it’s no surprise that teens across the world like to hear music made by people that are actively living the same experience they are. And of course, what would be a childhood basement without the post-midnight presence of “ghosts.” Back to the question, I think the phenomena of “bedroom pop” is more so a result of music recording tools being accessible to teens than them writing in their bedroom. The water heaters would go off right as I’d start recording vocals meaning I'd have to break until I had some silence again. What do you think it is about writing a song in a childhood reminiscent environment that makes a song special?įORREST NOLAN: To be clear, the basement of my house was nowhere near as romantic as a bedroom floor - despite my best efforts to keep it clean, the air was perpetually filled with dust and the occasional smell of mouse carcass. and eating a hotdog in the park on a sunny day.ĬOUP DE MAIN: There has been a mini-phenomenon as of late of the 'written on my bedroom floor' song, and you've said that the 'You Make Me Feel Alright' EP was written and produced in the basement of your childhood home.
