Bayonne, otherwise known as Roger Sellers, has channeled his vast imagination into an elegant yet wildly experimental form of electronic pop, equal parts meditative and mesmerizing. Sellers embeds his songs with the kind of gloriously strange sonic details that have always defined Bayonne’s music (e.g., the unearthly pedal-steel riffs of “FK,” courtesy of Minnesota-based musician Aaron Fabbrini; the sweetly off-kilter Omnichord tones of the album-closing “Tabitha”). “I’d always been a little anxious about handing off my music to other people, but with this record it felt so amazing to get other people involved—it completely opened me up,” says Sellers. “There were moments when it was difficult to write about what I was going through, but the whole process made me fall back in love with music again. I put everything I was feeling into it, and I hope it brings people some kind of comfort.”
