Background

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] 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

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 format), showing that the album was recorded between May 2018 and January 2023.
