Earlier this month, Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon and the National’s Aaron and Bryce Dessner launched PEOPLE, a digital platform for new music. Among the initial songs uploaded were four tracks from Big Red Machine, the band consisting of Justin Vernon and Aaron Dessner. In a new interview with Brandon Stosuy at The Creative Independent, Vernon discussed the group’s plans for a full-length LP

“We have a 10-song record that we’ll be spraying out throughout the rest of the summer,” Vernon explains, noting that the initial tracks were uploaded just to “put something up in the player for now.” He adds that there are plans for a potential vinyl release.

In T. Cole Rachel’s TCI interview with Aaron and Bryce Dessner, Bryce adds that Big Red Machine is “the first example of a new project or type of music that came out of this environment.” Aaron adds, “I don’t think the record would exist without this kind of platform and this community that came together to make it. We took the music to a certain point and then we reached out and sent it far and wide to a lot of people. You see on every song—we’ve only posted four—but you kind of see the whole record as a thing where 30 or 40 or 50 different people feed into it. We’ve viewed it from a community standpoint.”

Elsewhere during the conversation, Bryce Dessner reveals plans to use the platform to release music from the Long Count, the Dessners’ 2009 project that also involved Kelley and Kim Deal, the National’s Matt Berninger, and My Brightest Diamond’s Shara Worden.
