More Music Soon...

Once I finish mixing it, I'll post the recordings from our latest session. I've been too busy lately...

Split Session-- 17 August 2009 & January-February 2011

Basic session: 17 August 2009
Rob: guitar & synth
Todd: MPC programming

Overdubs: January-February 2011
Todd: electronic percussion, synthesizer, sampler, and manipulation

Why there are overdubs:
When the original session was recorded, Todd messed up and lost his Handsonic track. It took him two years, but he finally overdubbed some improvisations. Some songs have multiple overdubs, but they are all first takes.

The songs were named by an online random text generator.
