For “Particle Flux,” Wolfe sampled the sound of her fingers moving over a Walt Whitman book that she was reading while writing the song. Some interesting sonic bits were injected into the album. “I like to write alone and send things back and forth to Ben or whoever I’m working with at the time, but for this one I felt really comfortable with Jess,” says Wolfe. Wolfe considers Chisholm her co-producer because they worked closely while demoing and fleshing out the material before the studio sessions and she jammed with him and Gowrie, which is not her typical approach.
The main Hiss Spun recording lineup includes Wolfe, Gowrie, Chisholm and Van Leeuwen. “I like that vibe of being able to get out of bed at three in the morning and work on something if you’re feeling it.” “I work in my home studio whenever inspiration hits me,” she explains. The set up with an apartment above the studio appealed to Wolfe and reminded her of home. During tour rehearsals at Ballou’s GodCity Studio in Salem, Mass., she became enamored with the space and ultimately recorded the new album there. The two met when she was asked last year to join the Massachusetts metal band onstage for a few European shows to perform reworked Converge songs under the group name Blood Moon, for which she sang and played some acoustic guitar. Hiss Spun was recorded by Converge guitarist Kurt Ballou.
“I think that most of them are probably valid depending upon what song of mine you’re listening to.” “I think there are a lot of different descriptions out there for what I do,” says Wolfe.
