to become a quarantine anthem. The synth-pop tune was partially inspired by her memory of a Bushwick, Brooklyn, show that started at 1 a.m., but its true subject is binging a Netflix series all day — something many of us can relate to at this moment in time. “Who would have thought that me singing ‘I don’t want to go outside’ is now the only choice?” says Dupuis, 32. “I’m a trailblazer.”, which she acknowledges would have made for a great screen name back in the day.
That changed when she visited the Frye Art Museum in Seattle, and was struck by portraits including German painter Franz von Stuck’s, a 1906 image of Australian dancer Paulina Clarissa Molony. She felt a presence within the painting and became inspired. “I’ve always liked haunted imagery, creepy things, [and] horror movies,” Dupuis says. “Seeing that painting gave me context for how I wanted to work on this album.
One of the studios Dupuis recorded in was Elliott Smith’s New Monkey Studio in Van Nuys, California. “I’m just a huge Elliott Smith fan,” she says. “The thing I think about when I think about Elliott Smith is that he was a gear nut. This studio is the living document of his interest in the studio as an instrument, and in installing and repairing gear and finding cool old vintage stuff. It’s very vibe-y, which is a word I have never used in my life other than talking about this studio.
