Welcome to the gut-wrenching, epic conclusion of: 
"The Nate Hammond Show." 

The curtain rises on our young hero, Nate Hammond, also known as DJ Choosy Johnny-Boy-Raphael-Bigtime. He is walking the freshly snowed-over streets of Fountain Square at approximately three in the morning. Our protagonist has ten hits of acid on his tongue as he sings, "What did I have to eat this morning but nothing?" Suddenly the ground opens up and he is consumed by fire and dragged to the depths of hell. This audio experiment by sound-scientist "Bad Squids" attempts to recreate the inner-monologue of a man disc jockeying a radio station that only plays his music, every song he has ever written, to an audience of no one, forever, in the depths of hell, while tripping on lsd. 

A few days after Nate gave me his computer I set up a microphone and recorded myself attempting to play the drums for about half an hour. I'm a pretty horrible drummer, but I forced myself to keep going even when I messed up. Later that night I got high and played guitar over the sporadic drum-torture session. It would sound pretty cool for a second but almost every time the music would lock into a groove, I had messed up on the drum track from earlier, got frustrated, stopped, and convinced myself to keep going. The guitar would have to kind of linger for a second, trying to fill in the sudden gap, and just as I would start to save it, the drums would come back in, sometimes not even remotely on beat. Being a recording-obsessed nerd, I decided to keep on going and add bass anyway. I went back and dubbed myself trying to play my shitty Wurlitzer organ, added MIDI strings and brass, random sounds effects, until eventually I had a weird mess of tracks all based upon the drums I had attempted first. I scrapped the thirty minute garageband file and forgot about the whole thing for a few weeks until I found these weird clips of Nate talking to himself and other audio he's hoarded over the years... suddenly it all made sense.
