about

All tracks recorded in one long take in a laundry room at night, with a little bit of mixing on top. Bird sounds recorded that same night. Samples on track 5 recorded between 2009 and 2012.

Instruments: mandolin, voice, and right leg + floor.

This album is the result of spontaneous experimentation with improvisation, detonalization, timbre/percussive music and the process of repeating and expanding mistakes to make them an integral and essential part of the piece rather than an unwanted imperfection.

I started recording when I put my washed clothes in the dryer and stopped when they were done drying. If I make $2.50 with this album, I will have earned back my laundry expenses.
