So, me putting out stuff like this after "Communication" is me exploring new sounds. I just love exploring different sounds, so even from the start, I put out "Different," and then the second song was "Worst Girls Of All Time," which was a completely different sound than the indie-pop wave that "Different" is. I feel like it’s such a box, and it's so limiting. I'm in a certain lane in the sense I do indie-pop, I do alternative, but I don’t want to do straight pop. I don't really like putting myself in one genre. Can you tell me about how you approach your genre-spanning sound? "Dumped" is a noted sonic transition for you. when I have the time to sit down with my ADHD mind. So, hopefully, I can finish that before the movie comes out. But they were still good books! I'm in the middle of reading Dune, which is very good so far. Well, okay, my senior year of high school I read like 13 books but a lot of them were for school. I have not, in the past year, read a ton of books, which sucks because I actually do like reading. I do love reading, I've always liked reading. In the music video, you are seen reading an "Idiot’s Guide To Love." What was the last book you read? So, for anyone who does listen to it, I hope that it helps bring you out of the mourn and into a new light. Like, "yeah, I got dumped but I'm better off on my own anyway." I always like that feeling better than wallowing in sadness. It sucks, it's not a fun feeling, so every time I listen to it, it is kind of an "f you" type of song. what if we change it to "I'm getting dumped all the time." And I was like, "Woah." That's kind of how it started and we were on a roll and wrote the whole song in two hours.Īnd the song does mean a lot to me, because I have actually been dumped, multiple times. So, I started playing like three chords that are all throughout "Dumped," singing this hook line that - it's going to sound really weird - "I'm taking dumps all the time." The guy I was producing it with was like, "OK, gross," but that actually could be really cool. I'll play random chords and sing random lyrics, like ad-lib over them just for fun. Then I pulled my guitar off the wall and started messing around, because when I get bored, especially in sessions, I like to try and take my mind off things. So, we were like, "OK, we are going to go take a break for a little." It was not a good song, and none of the three of us wanted to say it was a bad song. When we were writing it, it was me, my friends, Ryan and Sean, and we were writing in a zoom session for like three hours. I don't know how to explain that, but let's just say I was in a relationship, taking time off, in a sense. I wish when I wrote it, it came from like, I had just been dumped. Ones to Watch: So, tell me the story behind "Dumped?"Īidan Bissett: Wow, that's a good question. We had the chance to talk to Bissett about his creative approach, his latest single, "Dumped," and plenty more. With a soulful dedication to "music first, lyrics second," Bissett is steadily creating his own lane defined by a relentless drive for experimentation. Releasing soft-spoken tracks followed by headbanging, classic-rock inspired hits, this young artist's music truly feels alive, shifting and evolving from one release to the next. Aidan Bissett's sunny and effortless disposition contrasts the chaotic ode to classic rock that is his latest track "Dumped." The introspective and cathartic nature of his latest offering speaks to age-old feelings of heartbreak while doubling as an optimistic reminder that cloudy days cannot last forever.
