Alisa Stepura has released her full album ‘Birds Are Dinosaurs Too.’
The songwriter has developed a DIY creative process, using vintage reel-to-reel equipment to create a warm sound. Alisa's musical influences are impressive; she appreciates UK indie bands like Arctic Monkeys and The Subways, as well as the vibrant sound of the Irish group Fontaines D.C.
Her 2023 single ‘Heaven’s Jealous’ announced her undeniable talent, after which Alisa returned to the studio to refine her focus.
Whimsical, clever, and often poignant, her debut album ‘Birds Are Dinosaurs Too’ features eight tracks—a concise yet thought-provoking collection.
The catchy opener ‘Aftertaste’ reflects her alternative tastes, while the album expands to showcase a cohesive identity with eclectic elements.
Alisa Stepura notes...
I originally recorded the entire song on reel-to-reel tape. Nearly everything except for the vocals and the synthesizer segment at the end comes directly from those tape recordings, which were later mixed to achieve a more modern sound. It was immensely enjoyable to experiment with various ‘old-school’ equipment, and to step away from the computer during the recording process.
