about

CCR136

Ethanol is the solo project of 22 year old Richmond native Ethan Rozario, who has been producing music since the age of 12.

"A few experiences come to mind when I think about what drove the songwriting on this album. Times when I looked through my parents' old Hi-8 tapes, or when a family member tagged me in a picture from 2008 on Facebook. Times when I was surrounded by people I couldn't remember the names of. Times on the road between my parent's house and my apartment. Times standing at a gas pump while an ad plays on a small screen. Times I made brief eye contact with myself in the mirror and quickly turned away. In each of these moments, I became confused about where I stood in relation to what I saw. I had trouble parsing the commercial spaces around me, the faces of friends, the link between me and my family, and even my own reflection. I stood in a space apart from all those things, and in that empty space I needed something to declare myself into existence. That's where I think this album largely played a role."

Aside from this project, Ethan plays keyboard for synth-punk quintet Teenage Cenobite and for singer-songwriter Levi Douthit. He gives many thanks to Manny, Prophette, Bell, Revive the Sound, the Donut crew, and everyone on his close friend's list on Instagram.
