Listen in HERE In the quiet of his St. Catharines home, Dre Dupuis found a way back to the heart of making music. His self-titled debut album, recorded entirely on a vintage Tascam Portastudio in his laundry room, is a lo-fi, late-night project built from instinct and patience. The setup was simple: a few microphones, a four-track recorder, and the stillness that comes when the world has gone to sleep. The result is a record that feels handmade, personal, and deeply rooted in the act of creating for its own sake.
