THE MODEL : A MINIMALIST EXPLORATION FROM GASPARD EDEN
Quebec City, February 28th 2025 - Gaspard Eden’s new single, "The Model", is a delicate exploration of vulnerability, crafted with an intentionally minimalist touch.
Recorded on his eight-track tape machine, the song weaves together soothing acoustic guitars, naive drums playing and humming Wurlitzer melodies. The result is a stark and ethereal soundscape where Eden’s understated vocals drift softly above the instrumentation.
Introduced from a neutral angle, the track delves into the inner dialogue of a model being observed, dissected, and interpreted by artists. It explores the tension between perception and reality, shifting in the chorus to the model’s perspective:
I’ll be your fool for the night and sit still
I’ll be your crooked lines and sit still
I’ll make it look a little more real
According to your taste
By flipping the gaze, "The Model" blurs the lines between subject and observer, revealing the raw vulnerability of being seen and interpreted without control over what’s reflected back. Eden’s stripped-down arrangement and lyrical subtlety amplify this emotional core, making the track a poignant meditation on identity and exposure.
