RECORDING UNDER THE INFLUENCE: Tamaryn

Recording Under the Influence is a recurring self-titled feature where we ask artists to ignore their musical inspirations for a minute and share what really went into the making of a particular record. We’ve already told you how Tamaryn‘s Mexican Summer debut (The Waves) is full of “Mazzy Star melodies and Laurel Canyon chords, beamed from a platform at the bottom of the ocean.” Here’s how it ended up that way…

1. ROLAND’S RE-301 SPACE ECHO

2. CARL JUNG’S ANIMA

3. VERUSCHKA AS THE MESSIAH, SINAI

4. FORT FUNSTON, SAN FRANCISCO

5. OLD WORDS IN NEW ORDERS SO THAT THEY SURVIVE, SO THAT THEY CREATE BEAUTY, SO THAT THEY TELL THE TRUTH
