Jimmy Edgar On Metal “SOPHIE And I Had Been Exchanging Synthesizer Files For Years And Developing New Styles Of Synthesis Since 2011 Or So. We Were Trying To Figure Out How To Create Sounds That Sound Like Physical Objects. I Was Downloading A Lot Of White Papers From Universities And Doing All This Technical Research To Figure Out How To Achieve This. Basically A Lot Of The Album Is Based On Physical Modeling And There Are A Couple Types Of Synthesis That Are Related To That. One Is Called ‘sweep Step Synthesis ’ Which Is Emulating Say The Sound Of Rubbing Your Finger On Glass Which Casts The Glass As A Resonant Body And The Finger As Something With Tension And Resistance. We Ate This Stuff Up. ‘METAL’ Was An Attempt To Lean Into These Concepts. She And I Had A Bunch Of Collaborations But This Was The One That Felt Like The Most Finished And Relevant To The Album.”
