about the record

Wayfinding is Christopher Bissonnette’s sixth solo studio release and his first on 12k. The album marks an evolution in Bissonnette’s work, moving from exclusively synth-based explorations toward a nuanced amalgam of electronic and acoustic approaches. Each track seeks grandeur on a diminutive scale, as his focus shifts from sweeping pastoral drones to introspective passages shaped by delicate melodies and elusive harmonies, interwoven with studio and field recordings. This attention to the minute is mirrored in an accompanying photographic series that examines the domestic landscape of home. The images transform the banality and perceived insignificance of the familial interior into expansive vistas and bucolic panoramas. Wayfinding is Bissonnette’s most intimate and gauzy work to date, executed with remarkable restraint.
