{"product_id":"save-as-indie-exclusive-eco-grey-vinyl","title":"Save As (Indie Exclusive Eco Grey Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is no grand, overarching storyline to Save As, the second solo album from Elena Tonra's \u003cspan\u003eEx: Re project. Rather, the album - produced by Fabian Prynn and also featuring Josephine \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStephenson on cello, Hinako Omori on synthesisers, Ben Reed on bass and Jethro Fox on electric \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eguitar - is the latest in the Daughter lead singer's catalogue of expert chronicles of the gnawing \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eminutiae of human consciousness: the over-thinking that consumes us, and the places we travel \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto escape. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe title of album opener \"Radio Station\", which begins with stately strummed acoustic guitar \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eand morphs into a trippy song about an endless California roadtrip, is a metaphor for how \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTonra feels about her mind. \"I end up getting stuck because I can't make decisions,\" she says. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDemo recordings live on in many of the final cuts, as on \"Sleep\", which Tonra first recorded in a \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehotel room in Paris. The final version features a melodic loop made from the demo's acoustic \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eguitar run through a vocoder and a drum machine, which together offer a muffled quality to the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003esound, like hearing a party through a wall. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOther tracks, such as the stand-out \"Am I Even Real?\", a Tonra-Prynn duet on which Tonra sings \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eabout spaceships to ask whether she is being true to herself in a relationship, found their true \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eversion in the studio. That combination of long-held ideas stored in notebooks and on laptops \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ewith unfiltered first thoughts and improvisations is key to the album's perfect mingling of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eliveliness and deep thoughtfulness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndie Exclusive Eco Grey Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUPC: 191400094437\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ex:Re","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68422366429435,"sku":null,"price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0431\/2606\/3262\/files\/ExRe-SaveAs.jpg?v=1793379492","url":"https:\/\/rustandwax.com\/products\/save-as-indie-exclusive-eco-grey-vinyl","provider":"Rust \u0026 Wax Record Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
