Working under various aliases since 2014 - including CE Schneider Topical, Jepeto Solutions, Christina Schneider's Genius Grant and now Locate S,1 - Christina Schneider has explored everything from groovy garage rock to minimalist bedroom pop to Syd Barrett-style psychedelia. Buoyed by her desire to create the same "crazy, powerful feeling" she gets when she hears an ABBA or Kate Bush song, she reached again for the outer limits of pop music and recorded "Personalia", her sophomore album as Locate S,1. Schneider spends much of the album trying to understand and expel a darkness that has come over her (and society at large) in order to live a more fulfilling life. While she was writing and recording the album in her home studio in Athens, GA over the past year, she was thinking a lot about her own growth and self-worth as an artist, and where her constantly evolving and always experimental music fits in the digital age. Environmentalism, money, power, and modern feminism formed part of that conversation, too. Throughout "Personalia", Schneider seeks to address how the attention economy is plaguing us with feelings of FOMO and anxiety, causing many of us to abandon their progressive values. Her partner Kevin Barnes, of the rock band of Montreal, co-produced and engineered the album. At its core, "Personalia" is about rebuilding, not rebranding. It's about evolving and moving forward despite knowing the world is falling apart around you.
