about

I spent the short holiday break last week working on supporting tracks and textures for the Folk Implosion album we are working on. Synths, drum machines, loops, tones, some guitars, are heard mixed together as a noisy medley here, mostly without the context of the melodic structure of the tunes audible (with a few exceptions of catchiness.). I hope you find this interesting regarding the process. I don't know which of these sounds will actually make it onto the record yet but that's part of the fun I'm having.

You'll also hear a few outtakes from the attic sessions we did in the summer of 2021 at Lou's house, just jamming to write the basic building blocks of this record. These ones didn't get turned into songs for the record but I still enjoy them.
