Natural Behaviour is the debut album by Lea Mathis aka Pet Owner. The songwriter from Lucerne describes with a velvety voice the world that surrounds her. She programs drum machines from the 80s, adds folky guitar riffs, quirky noises and elapsed synths. The ten tracks are a collaged exploration of perceptional spheres (natural to artificial), emotional states and physical experiences. From mooing cows to a VSS-30 voice sampler, she produces her music with all the treasures she can find.
Pet Owner recorded most of her album with Amadeus Fries, her partner in Little Fellow. For years, they have been sharing their love for manipulate sounds and working in the best DIY manner.
All of the artwork and music videos for the album are also created by Pet Owner. Retro chic and 3D game design are enmeshed to present indie pop art, highlighting the importance of the creative process (craft and snippets), just as much as the finished track or clip.
