Why Do We Have To Go Big? (I'm Home)

by @danvaillancourt · @cloudboy

Liner Notes

Dan: Michael sent me a great main guitar part, a synth part and the title and told me that I could have at it. I added a bass part, eBow part and some double speed guitar, Mason added drums and then I turned some knobs and mixed it. Best in headphones. Let me know what scene that you imagine for the audio.

Michael: It was such a nice surprise to send off two tracks to Dan (with a weird title) and have him and Mason add beautiful layers to it. And then Dan just brought it home with the knob-twisting win. Super thankful to them both for taking the time to jump in the audio sandbox with me.

Michael Aquino - Guitar, Synth
Dan Vaillancourt - Bass, Guitar, eBow, Production and Knob Twisting
Mason Rosenfeld - Drums

What fun... to be bathed in sound and rocking out at the same time. There's so much going on here, at the same time plenty of space to enjoy it all!

You guys. . . this has a raw and fun early Cure sound to it (at least to me). My favorite. There's a lot of cool parts to and keep me engaged here. Must have been so much fun. Congrats on the collab!

I imagined summertime biking as a kid, probably to a pond or beach. Something about the bouncy bass line grabbed me. When paired with the driving guitars is all works great.

Lovely instrumental, love the bursts of guitar and the way the synth textures come in and out of the picture. Very cool :)

I could see some John Travolta dancing oddly to this track. Great production and guitars.
Thanks 🙏
