A couple years ago we decided we’d spend every day writing and recording music. We had no parameters and imposed no limitations on the project. Our only goal was to combine diverse styles, instrumentation/sound sources to create a varied yet inified body of work. In this way every song has its own story and different textural and structural design. Some songs began as simple acoustic guitar melodies that we heaped layers upon. Some began as chunks of noise or sound experiments which were given form via editing and digital manipulation. We used everything we could find.

We snuck into churches to use pianos, “borrowed” instruments from friends, amplified things that are not meant to be amplified and scanned the library for interesting sound clips. In the end we were able to channel our neurotic creative drive and existential alienation through guitars, bass, synths, software, piano, kamilba, flute, xylophone, field recordings, samples, voice, tape noise, effects pedals, and ultimately digital editing. After a few months Mitch came back and took the songs we had made and embellished/remixed/redirected them as he saw fit. Upon returning to school, the final mixes were sent to each other electronically until we agreed that they were complete. So here we are, all still under 20 years old with a mass of recorded music on our hands. The first of which is now being issued by The Arena Rock Recording Company.
