Who Could Mess.ure

Mix 17 is a summery trip of over 2 hours that comes from Grizzly Bear member Christopher Bear, who released his first solo album as Fools with us last month. Interview (excerpt) down below.

MFM: Hi Chris, welcome to the series. How have you been lately, LA too must have felt and looked different the past couple weeks? Did the recent events influence your view of music, culture and society in some way?

CB: Heya! Happy to be a part of it. I’m doing pretty well, all things considered... Yeah, absolutely. It’s being felt around the world, as it should be. Obviously, a serious excavation of the systemic racism that pervades our country is long overdue and perhaps the more pronounced collective consciousness from pandemic conditions in tandem with all of the police brutality, pushed things over the edge enough to get a real movement happening. There is much sadness, grief, and anger wrapped up in it, but the bit of progress that has been made so far feels very positive and I hope that the momentum continues and more change will come. All of the motion towards defunding the police is very exciting as it is such a corrupt and broken system.

MFM: So, congratulations with your very solo album. Were the choices to limit yourself in time and to record during summer made intentionally?

CB: Thanks! It kind of just developed out of the circumstances of life at that moment. I had finished up some scoring work a couple months prior and was feeling a bit unfocused and confused with what to do around the beginning of June, but also had a family trip to the east coast planned for the middle of July. So rather than let those weeks fizzle into more meandering, I set the intention to finish something long enough that I could throw on a tape and listen to on my trip. I didn’t have a clear idea at all what that would be, but that was the fun of it. There were some textures and sounds that I had been messing around with that I figured would shape some of the aesthetic, but really just following whatever ideas started coming thru day to day.

MFM: Most of the songs have this very serene and calm vibe to it, rather meditating or even spiritual. Can you describe the surroundings of the place where you did the recordings?

CB: That’s good to hear. I would treat each morning getting started in the studio a bit like a meditation. I’d bring down my coffee and just start playing Wurlitzer or whatever synth was calling for about an hour and see what happened, often fairly drone-y or raga-esque. The studio itself has a good energy, it’s not huge, but certainly enough room for me as long as I don’t find anymore synths ; ) It’s got a window, so the natural light is a real bonus and I keep some plants in there, which gives it some nice life as well.

MFM: In Grizzly Bear you do vocals as well. How come are there no vocals on this record?

CB: Alongside removing the parameter of traditional song form for this collection, I told myself not to worry about vocals. It’s often the part I’d get stuck on in past recordings, so in the spirit of trying to finish something, that freedom helped keep things moving. Also my listening often gravitates towards instrumental music, so it definitely felt like more of my wheelhouse. At some point, I’d love to figure out a way to incorporate voice into my own music, but it will just take some time.

MFM: Thanks for contributing to the mix series. What was your approach to making it?

CB: I used to DJ more frequently years ago and it’s something I really enjoy doing. I’ve always had a passion for digging, collecting, and connecting the dots between different music. This mix has a handful of tunes that I’ve been listening to more over the past year as well as some things I’ve held close to my heart for a long time. A lot of it feels somehow related to the palette or energy of Fools’ Harp and some of it is maybe a place I’d like to head with whatever I do next.
