Person Pitch
open-in-new
<h2 id="background-and-recording">Background and recording</h2> <p>Lennox recorded <i>Person Pitch</i> over a two-year period, working slowly because he lacked large stretches of time to dedicate to the material in between tours with <a href="/facts/Animal_Collective/wgLeXHUm">Animal Collective</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5"><sup>5</sup></a> In response to this, he entertained the idea of releasing a series of <a href="/facts/12-inch_single/AQLFHbJz">12-inch singles</a> over time which would then eventually be compiled into a singles album, a practice inspired by <a href="/facts/Dance_music/MsDMMnvz">dance</a> producers such as <a href="/facts/Basic_Channel/8VpWomB2">Basic Channel</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6"><sup>6</sup></a> Initially, Lennox wanted to name it <i>Perfect Pitch</i> before settling on <i>Person Pitch</i> – "<i>pitch</i> being sound and <i>person</i> being a person with <i>person pitch</i> being a sound of a person."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a> He attributed the brighter sound of the project to his move to <a href="/facts/Lisbon%2c_Portugal/zFTcC99e">Lisbon, Portugal</a> and recent familial developments, saying: </p> <blockquote><p>A lot of the songs on <i>Person Pitch</i> are kind of sugary. [...] It's really mellow and sunny here [in Portugal] and I feel like the album really sounds like that to me. Also the stuff that's happened to me in the past two years, like getting married and having a kid and all that, has had a pretty profound impact on the kind of music I play and the kind of subjects I address. My approach to being a musician has drastically changed from having a kid and being a provider.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8"><sup>8</sup></a></p></blockquote> <p>When Lennox moved to Lisbon, he was initially unable to bring his guitar into the country after it was held up in <a href="/facts/Customs/dLBa0dlN">customs</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9"

id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10"><sup>10</sup></a> As a result, the album is primarily composed of <a href="/facts/Audio_sample/QLXy5WbA">samples</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11"

"tried pretty hard to hide the stuff or make it my own in some way" by applying elements such as <a href="/facts/Sound_effect/1M0EMu6b">effects</a> and <a href="/facts/Equalizer_(audio)/hHGUDhRR">EQ</a> treatments, and he developed melodies as he played these samples.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14"><sup>14</sup></a> Despite his
