Into the Blue opens with a playful warning of "Hey, it's him again -- uh-oh!" and isn't without other lighthearted moments, but the second solo album from the Indications' drummer and falsetto specialist ultimately revolves around real-life heartbreak. Aaron Frazer conceived it after a major romantic split and a move from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. He further guaranteed its distinction from Introducing..., his 2021 debut, by bringing in an almost entirely different set of fellow musicians, writers, and producers, working most intensively with Alex Goose (Danny!, Freddie Gibbs & Madlib, Brockhampton) while receiving limited contributions from the likes of Nick Waterhouse (on the bracing rave-up "Payback") and Robin Hannibal. The connection with Goose brought about a wider range of styles and, on three songs, the use of samples. Frazer developed his drumming in part by playing along to hip-hop records, so the combination of live instrumentation and samples wasn't foreign to him.
