Mike: erf came to visit. We recorded this. There’s something much “better” in the pipe. erf: I wouldn’t say that it is necessarily “better”. I mean, this is a subjective measure, isn’t it?

[Audio clip: view full post to listen] Yesterday, I dug through a few hard drives looking for some digital photos. I found (most of) the photos, but I ended up finding something more interesting… pretty much every song I’ve recorded on my computer since 2001. Multitracks and all.
