A couple years ago we decided we would 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 unified 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. 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.
