.elliott_mags's new album 'Say Things That Matter' is not just the perfect summer album, it's also a physical manifestation of his personal growth
— both lo-fi garage-rock affairs. Soon after, he moved to L.A., where he couch-surfed while working a hectic catering job. All the while, his music was creeping across Spotify and YouTube, even a few TV placements Say Things That Matter,
Douglas was inspired by both hip-hop and his growing interest in synthesizers to push his songwriting and production further. “There were plenty of times where I was sitting there with some crazy synthesizer patch, and I was like, is this too much? Is this self-indulgent?” he says. “I saw this video of David Bowie talking on some late-night show, and he basically said if the music you’re making doesn’t scare you, you’re doing it wrong.” Still, he kept his scrappy background close to heart.
Though a difficult time, it was also a time of growth and self-discovery. “The thing with life lessons is you keep learning them until you learn them. You find that there are patterns in your life — it’s like, you haven’t learned what you’re supposed to learn yet,” he says. “I’m learning to be more clear-minded and confident in my decisions. I’ve started to let go of things — realizing that you can’t be in control of everything.
It’s also a perfect summer album, from the exuberant opener “Smile” to the mellow, breezy closer “Sunrise.” There are soulful ballads , and hard-hitting rock songs along the way, but its vibes are carefully crafted at every point. “I remember a time when making an album was more of an art form. You put a lot more thought into the way that the flow of the songs goes and the different colors you can create,” he says.
