about
Doug Stuart is a producer, composer, and session musician based out of Los Angeles. His debut album, Familiar Future, was released on Ropeadope Records in the fall of 2020 and featured guitarist Jeff Parker in the context of Stuart’s compositions, production, and arrangements. He co-writes and produces as part of the electronic indie duo, Brijean, along with Brijean Murphy. The duo has several releases on Ghostly International. In addition to producing and playing on records for many other artists, Stuart also composes music for the NPR podcasts Snap Judgment and Spooked
Doug says of the track, “This song started from a voice memo that I recorded on our patio one morning. It was just a few chords on acoustic guitar with some birds and kids laughing in the background (heard near the end of the song), but I liked the forward momentum that the rhythm and chords implied. I abstracted and expanded the orchestration of this little idea and came up with the bulk of what is heard in the song, “Silhouettes”. Near the end of the process, the song really came to life when I recorded my friend Kosta Galanopoulos playing drums and my partner Brijean Murphy playing percussion over it. The two vignettes that are heard in the very beginning and end of the song were lucky finds from some OP1 experiments that I recorded onto the cassette which was used to master the song.”

In These Times
by Makaya McCravensupported by 10 fans who also own “Silhouettes”
Unlike any other. Its feel is both reflective and down to earth, and the compositions are easily differentiated despite their relative shortness. Not only a pleasure to listen to, this album is rhythmically complex, but not in a maddening, hard to process way. Also, very clever album title.
