Dosey’s new EP ‘perhaps i’m simply terrified’ is a visceral, cathartic listening expertise composed of three singles and three respective demos. The artwork of the demo and the hole it bridges between artist and listener will not be misplaced on Dosey. It’s a dying artwork that’s been with him because the begin of his profession – and he’s dedicated to holding it alive.
Stream: “Chilly Climate” – Dosey
I’m obsessive about placing out demos. I want that extra artists and my favourite artists would do this.
It’s St. Patrick’s Day (March 17, 2025) and I really feel just like the luckiest critic on this planet to be in attendance at Dosey’s EP listening social gathering on the Dolby Theater in Hollywood.
He crammed up the theater with shut buddies, household, and members of the music business to have fun the discharge of perhaps i’m simply terrified and take heed to the 6-track undertaking in Dolby Atmos and complete darkness. I’d by no means listened to a undertaking in Dolby Atmos earlier than and don’t assume I’ll ever hear the identical means once more. From all corners of the theater, the exact complexities of his orchestral capstones as recorded on the legendary Shangri-La would fill the room in opposition to his uncooked and unapologetic demos as recorded oftentimes in his bed room.
“The distinction between the produced out stuff we made at Shangri-La and the demos is that my purpose with placing the demos out is for folks to have a extra intimate relationship with the lyrics versus the music. And that’s why Shang’s tremendous cool, we received to take all these dwell devices and construct it into this entire world for each music. There’s no higher place that I might think about doing it. I’m fortunate.”
Dosey has been making music since he was slightly child, usually strolling round his childhood house and creating melodies. In highschool, he put out a music referred to as “Sunday Morning” on SoundCloud, straight from the voice memos of his iPhone 4S, and watched it soar to 1 / 4 million streams. This unfiltered catharsis is a cornerstone of who Dosey is and has at all times been as an artist.
“Most of my songs I write at house on my own which is my most well-liked methodology of making. Shang challenged me rather a lot to increase on these processes of bringing stuff into the world. With Tyler, we wrote that music (“Chilly Climate”) so quick. It was tremendous natural, it felt tremendous pure, the phrases had been simply flowing out, and that was actually cool. It shifted my entire perspective on collaboration and songwriting. That’s one thing I actually worth in my relationship with Tyler as a result of I simply don’t have that form of reference to lots of people I work with.”
Objectively, perhaps i’m simply terrified stands out to me as a listener as a result of it looks like Dosey is difficult himself to develop whereas honoring his roots unexpectedly. The entire thing looks like a serendipitous coincidence.
His supervisor Chene Castrodale introduced collectively Dosey, Tyler Harris, and Cody Doss to jot down and report the undertaking collectively at Shangri-La.
The outcomes? A timeless but rooted in place assortment of emotive innermost anxieties. Dosey takes that sacred area of writing from his bed room and makes it part of the susceptible and intimate songs he pens.
“It’s been over a 12 months since we went to Shang for the primary time. Although the undertaking is new, I take heed to it and I get all these reminiscences. “Sacrifices” and “Chilly Climate” actually deliver me there.”
Listening to the undertaking in Dolby Atmos surrounded by folks he cherished and regarded as much as was a turning level for Dosey in his profession. There was an vitality of focus and focus within the room that the music demanded. It actually felt like we had been there with Dosey in his bed room creating these tracks collectively. It was the closest I’ve been to a undertaking like that ever.
“I nearly felt like I didn’t even should be there. I didn’t really feel prefer it was about me, it felt like we had been all watching a film or one thing. I don’t know if it’ll ever really feel actual. I’ve heard a number of musicians and creatives say that when it begins to work out. That is 12 months 12 of me placing out music and 12 months 1 of it beginning to work.”
Dosey is driving the excessive of momentum and has daring aspirations to drop an album sooner or later.
“I’ve so many songs I wish to put out,” he admits. Earlier than that occurs although, you may see him headline the Mint on April twenty fifth.
“I used to be making an attempt to make myself at house, which is what I attempt to do wherever I’m going truthfully.”
That spirit of comfortability, of ease, breathes by the whole EP. That’s why this works. Dosey is that very same enamored child who fell in love with music, he’s just a bit older now and slightly extra terrified than he as soon as was.
