For Eucalyptus, Avey Tare did not start with a marketing idea or a genre. The environment he was living in came first.
The Animal Collective musician said around the release that he had wanted to make a more acoustic record for some time. After a period spent working heavily with keyboards and electronics, that step felt almost like a natural counter-movement.
An album that leaves space
The songs developed slowly and were allowed to remain open. Acoustic guitars, voices and small sounds are not locked into a strict pop structure. The result can feel more like walking through a landscape than listening to a studio recording.
Tare has described how a solo album often begins for him with something that first grows internally: an environment, a sound or an idea he carries around for a long time.
