Watts connected Vasoli to the band Body Language which had a studio based in the neighborhood of Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn called Landau Audio Design (LAD) . After one session the song "Great Love" was started and the musical relationship was established. Subsequent instrumental recordings were started in Brooklyn and sent to Vasoli, who would add vocals and bass guitar. The songs started to take on tropical qualities due to Young's collection of Exotica, Polynesian, Hawaiian and Tropicalia Records.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Exclusive Interview With Matt Young And Kenny Vasoli Of Vacationer on Lana's Land's Blog - Buzznet )〕 Most songs were sketched over email exchanges and then fleshed out at LAD.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=A Night of Good Vibes & Interview with Vacationer: 18 May 2012 )〕 Of the first 5 songs recorded "Trip" was decided to be the lead song and was self released in April 2011.
