Porches is an artist known for their unique blend of indie pop and electronic music. With a discography that spans over a decade, Porches has captivated audiences with their introspective lyrics and catchy melodies. Drawing inspiration from a diverse range of artists such as *LVL UP*, *Nova fliegt zum Mond*, and *Wide Open Mind*, Porches creates music that is both relatable and thought-provoking.

Formed in New York City, Porches quickly gained recognition for their distinct sound and captivating live performances. Their music often explores themes of love, loss, and self-discovery, resonating with listeners on a deep emotional level. Fans of *Hovvdy*, *Kaleem Taylor*, and *Ian Late* will appreciate the introspective nature of Porches' songs.

With each album release, Porches continues to push boundaries and experiment with new sounds. Collaborations with artists like *Ovlov*, *Buttering Trio*, and *Forth Wanderers* have allowed them to expand their musical horizons even further. Whether you're a fan of indie rock or electronic music, Porches' eclectic style is sure to leave a lasting impression.

Porches’ third record The House is a conscious effort in minimalism and honesty. “Making Pool”—the band’s 2016 breakthrough record, and Domino debut—“I learned how valuable the spirit of the demos are,” says singer Aaron Maine, “so this time I made a point of capturing a song the day it was conceived.” Because of this desire to document immediate sensations, the record’s fourteen tracks offer a series of diaristic vignettes. There are moments of emerging from fear of ego death (“Leave the House,” “By My Side,” “Now The Water”), escaping the corporeal (“Now The Water,” “Swimmer”), the terrifying thrill of young love (“Country,” “W Longing”), and parting with the past (“Wobble,” “Goodbye”). While these themes possibly paint The House in a dark light, the record is marked by an excitement at the prospect of self-discovery, and commitment to the process of getting there.

Though Aaron largely composes on his own, The House features contributions by Alexander Giannascoli (Alex G), Dev Hynes (Blood Orange), Kaya Wilkins (Okay Kaya), Jason Arce, Bea1991, and his own father, Peter Maine. As with Pool, Aaron brought his recorded work to Chris Coady (Beach House, Slowdive, TV on the Radio), who then mixed The House at his Sunset Sound studio.
