This is a concept album about consciousness in which Okay Kaya focuses her trademark combination of abstraction and wit on what happens to her mind unaccompanied, on her tendency to feel less like a human and more like the sticky secretion of a tree.\u003c\/p\u003eAfter releasing her Spellemann Award winning album Watch This Liquid Pour Itself in January of 2020, Kaya left her home in New York and moved to Europe to create and show her various interdisciplinary exhibitions. Among others, she made an installation that amplified music made underwater and an interactive sculpture based on Jungian sandplay therapy for children. Between her exhibits, Kaya recorded through lockdowns by herself in the loaned studios of generous friends. SAP first grew from the first single \"Spinal Tap\" about Kaya wandering in Berlin, tree-touching. \"Sap reminds me of the bodily functions I need to remember to do, like sleep. One might say it 'resinates.'\" The album was further inspired by Ketamine Therapy which is discussed in \"The Inside Of A Plum.\" Kaya explains, \"The doctor said this treatment grows literal physical branches in your brain.\" As she experimented with ego death, the subject of her song \"Jazzercise\", Kaya found herself writing in the voices of fictional characters she'd encountered in other people's stories. In 'Jolene From Her Own Perspective,' she imagines Dolly Parton's nemesis responding to her song. In 'Origin Story,' Kaya writes as a mythical goddess frustrated with her creation myth. In 'I've Spent Forever Planning A Crisis,' Kaya responds to Cassavetes' film A Woman Under The Influence writing from the perspective of the story's children. Okay Kaya's investigations of mind-body come along with sexy dance beats, unpredictable interlocking synths, delicate soft guitars, and close-to-the-mike R\u0026amp;B whispering. But Kaya likes her falsettos cracking and her soul-inspired hooks careening wildly, a beautiful chaos that somehow fits together. When she returned to New York, Kaya was excited to collaborate again, to get friends to \"bless the record.\" She invited friends to Gaia Studios in Greenpoint, Brooklyn to sing or play an instrument. Most songs on the album unfold with guest performances from artists as varied as deem spencer, Taja Cheek of L'Rain and Adam Green of The Moldy Peaches. Just as the recording process began with isolation and ended with friends, SAP starts with the internal and leads outside to romance, to lovers who serve as funhouse mirrors, reflecting Kaya back to herself from different angles. In \"Pearl Gurl\" Kaya harmonizes with her multi-tracked second self and sings her uncertain conclusion: \"If love is not the answer, it's one hell of a question.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"aec-musictabs\" class=\"ui-tabs ui-widget ui-widget-content ui-corner-all\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ui-tabs-nav ui-helper-reset ui-helper-clearfix ui-widget-header ui-corner-all\" role=\"tablist\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"ui-state-default ui-corner-top\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"mt-2\" aria-labelledby=\"MusicCredits\" aria-selected=\"false\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"-1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mt-1\" aria-labelledby=\"MusicTracks\" class=\"ui-tabs-panel ui-widget-content ui-corner-bottom\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-hidden=\"false\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"aec-jukebox\" class=\"tracksonly\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"jp-playlist tracksonly\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e Mood Into Object Personified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Jolene from Her Own Perspective\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e Origin Story\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e Jazzercise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e5\u003c\/span\u003e Pathologically Yours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e6\u003c\/span\u003e Spinal Tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e7\u003c\/span\u003e Inside of a Plum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e8\u003c\/span\u003e Rorschach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e9\u003c\/span\u003e In Regards to Your Tweet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e10\u003c\/span\u003e Dep.
