Released in 2012 /// Performed, recorded, mixed and not mastered by me
How cute this EP is. It’s fine. I reread what I wrote about this EP back in 2012, and I recognize that person still, can remember his sense of accomplishment.
In so many ways, though, he and I are very different. Back then, I had moved to Ithaca, NY, to start dating my now-wife. I moved into her apartment that she shared with a mutual friend and spent some of my free time up in an ice-cold attic tracking these songs, mattresses propped up as sound treatment.
Yes, those are canned drums.
By the way, I’ve been trying for years to resurrect “Mask,” even rewrote the lyrics and melody somewhat recently. Someday, maybe it’ll catch.
