Dennis is the third studio album Irish-Scottish music producer and musician Sega Bodega. It was released on 26 April 2024 via his own Ambient Tweets label and Supernature. [1] [2]

Contents

The album explores the feeling of being asleep, and a sense of disorientation surrounding uncertainty. [1] [3] Sega Bodega also chose the title based on a theory of collective consciousness, directly referencing the coincidence of the UK and US 'Dennis the Menace' comics premiering on print on the same day in 1951. The title is also an anadrome for "sinned". [4]

It was supported by the singles "Kepko", [5] "Deer Teeth", [6] "Set Me Free, I'm an Animal", [7] "Elk Skin", [3] and "True". [8]

The album art, and its respective singles and promotional art, were shot by Aidan Zamiri.
