Pitchfork | 6.1/10[1] |
One Wayne G is a compilation album by Canadian musician Mac DeMarco, self-released on April 21, 2023. The album comprises 199 mostly instrumental tracks lasting nearly nine hours.[2] A number of the songs had been heard before in online live streams.[3]
Background
[edit]The album was initially released online only, with no prior announcement. A post on the Instagram account for Mac's Record Label indicated a cut-down LP record and cassette release would be forthcoming.[4] However, DeMarco later confirmed images of the physical media were mock-ups created for a joke, and the album would remain digital-only.[5] However, a Blu-ray of the album was eventually released in late 2023. He chose to release the tracks as one long album in order to chart his evolution as an artist over a five-year span, and to document his need to continuously write and record new music.[5]
Composition
[edit]Of the 199 tracks, 18 have full titles and lyrics, the remainder being instrumentals or having simple scratch vocals, suggesting the album is composed of demos as well as finished pieces.[6] All track titles include a date (in ISO 8601 / YYYYMMDD format), showing that the album was recorded between May 2018 and January 2023.
